For your viewing pleasure

It was cold this morning around 6 degrees and we think it is because we are sitting in the shade behind the large Marina Yard workshops. The hatches were covered in dew and our little heater was working overtime.

As we are really just waiting on things to be installed or arrive, it meant another pretty low key day.
A walk up to Pagano's our favourite Hardware shop to grab a couple of things, stop at a little Cafe for a coffee and Greek pastry, found some more fabulous homes to take photo's of, checked out a couple of local Laundromats, they are big compared to what you see in Oz!! Then Dinah and Roger chase us up to say they're at the yard and are we were keen to join them for lunch? It was their day off and they took us to McGee's a pub, an Irish pub and we had a counter meal. It was all a bit like home, sigh...a Pub, ahhh. Then Roger seemed very keen to visit Tuckers Ice cream Parlour. We were pretty full, but......well when you saw Roger's Hot Fudge Sundae, you just had to squeeze one in. I mean it could be the last Hot Fudge Sundae we have in a long while. After that they helped us in the search for fishing gear...which ended up in Roger driving us to Oakland to find the only real Tackle shop nearby. It was a stressful half an hour of collecting the things we needed (too long a story to tell you why it was stressful) then Roger and Dinah kindly dropped us back at the Yard. Whenever Roger and Dinah take us somewhere it always seems to fill the day and by the time we got back it was nearly 4.30 pm and the sun had disappeared behind thick mackerel clouds and the temperature had dropped and the wind picked up, so we scooted down below and spent the afternoon watching You Tube clips of Ricky Gervais.

Since that is about our news for the day, I thought I would just post you a bunch of pretty pictures to look at, oh and some of the local Laundromat ;) Enjoy!
