The girls were tired after a long day of traveling so they hit the poolside lounge for a little nap time. Then we were off to Rum Runners to start Doris' birthday celebration.
Bubba's was waiting for us and so we had to be sure to get their drink specialty which Anne stole when Doris was not looking. Anne, its not even your birthday.
Friday morning we drove down to Naples for a boat ride to pick out a new home for the Schoenberg family, we have it narrowed down to 4 or 5, they just have to come up with about $20 million for a down payment, then they're in. They said something about a raffle.
We had a wonderful birthday lunch at Tin City right on the water. Doris, the birthday girl, is somewhere at the table.
Saturday morning we made the trip to Sanibel Island for shelling and beach time and no trip would be complete to SW Florida without a stop at Bonita Bill's. The stop turned into four hours but no one was complaining. We had the best time dancing and celebrating a birthday, of course, even the dogs came out in their best eyewear.
Saturday nite Cape Coral held its first bike nite of the season and so we spent some time looking at the bikes and Jen tried to tempt Jesus with her evil juice (beer). No luck there. Jesus only likes wine. Duh!
Sunday was a Fort Myers Beach day and we the whole day there.
We took a side trip to Pirate Fest on the island, took another boat ride, watched the pirates battle it out and watched a beautiful sunset before heading to Nervous Nellies for dinner under the stars with a two piece band playing right next to us.
Monday we made a quick stop at the Edison Estates and of course, we had to go have our last meal at the perfect farewell place in the area, The Waffle House. They did not disappoint.
We packed in a lot of adventures during the girls' stay here, I tried to show them the best of Florida and Florida provided the best weather for their visit. Sunny and hot and not a drop of rain.
This picture kind of sums up the whole weekend. Not only is it good looking, it don't taste too bad neither. Oh yeah, Gary ducked out the whole time and spent the weekend on an airbed at the other house with two girls, Mojo and DeDe. I think they're all glad to be home. Margaret
PS - Now who's next????
