The seas are still too rough to head home (awwwww. So tough to be stuck in Key West!) so we are making lemonade out of lemons...or actually rum punch out of rum, orange juice and cranberry juice! Our plan is to leave tomorrow, so yesterday we rode our bikes 3 miles to the grocery store to reprovision. We each had a backpack and we also were able to put bags into our bike baskets. After lunch on the boat, Eric decided he wanted a Conch Republic flag for the mast, so we set out to find one in town, and we succeeded (not hard to find in Key West!) I also bought a sun dress for $5 (there are $5 stores all over Key West) and it was worth every penny because I wore it last night, and it was the topic of many jokes at dinner last night!
Tom and Brady showed up for happy hour (their timing is impeccable!) and we went to a great little Chinese Restaurant for dinner. I think what I am enjoying most is the lack of rushing all of the time. I feel guilty not running to the gym every morning, but we seem to be getting our share of exercise biking and walking. Being able to wake up, check email, drink coffee and just relax in the morning is a real treat...not to mention napping in the afternoon, actually finishing a book and not putting on make up! Today some last minute shopping so we can head out in the morning.
