We got a fairly early start this morning hitting the beach around 8:00 for a little photo taking and shell collecting. We need to get up earlier to gather the best shells because the pros are out before dawn so the amateurs are left with scraps. After the beach we enjoyed a delicious breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant. After breakfast I drove Tracy to her favorite watering hole, Starbucks on Captiva Island about 25 minutes from Sanibel. The distance between the two islands is only 10 miles but the trip takes about 25 because the speed limit is between 25-35 for the entire route. Tracy worked from about 10:00-2:00. While Tracy worked I went into town to the grocery store and a consignment shop before heading back to the beach. I picked Tracy up at Starbucks and we drove back to the hotel with the convertible top down… wind blowing in our hair and the heat cranked way up blowing on our feet and faces all the way, it felt so good! Once back at the hotel we rented bikes and biked into the center of town and around the island for a little over an hour. We stopped at a couple shops and decided to buy sweatshirts because we’re tourist and it’s cold here! It started to rain on the way back but that didn’t bother me because earlier in the day I had made a head scarf/wrap out of Tracy’s t-shirt. The t-shirt scarf kept my head warm and dry. Tracy didn’t even notice her t-shirt on my head until I pointed it out to her LOL! I’ll have to take a photo because it looks pretty cool, a little trick I learned from watching YouTube videos. After the bike ride we drove into town to buy food for dinner because the hotel room has a full kitchen and eating out gets so expensive. We bought a salad and a California Pizza Kitchen pizza and enjoyed a good yet inexpensive dinner back in the room. Now we’re watching TV and relaxing. Tomorrow should be pretty mellow because the high is going to be in the 40s Yikes!
