The Firsts

After a harrowing drive through Georgia on Friday we arrived at our Condo at 1:00 p.m. yesterday.  Our unit wasn't ready so we went to our favorite coffee shop and had a Chai tea latte and a coffee and cooled our heals for awhile.  That was our first trip to our favorite coffee shop.  When our unit was ready, we were more than ready to move in.  We have a new unit this year; doesn't have quite the view of inter-coastal as the Eagles Nest, but we can still see it.  I named it "The Birds-Eye-View."
By dinner time we were ready for our favorite "first night" restaurant, the Greek Village.  Then a peak into Beall's Outlet and finally a grocery trip to Publix.  We were exhausted after that.  
Today was our first visit to Indian Rocks Baptist Church and our first meal at PJ's.  We had lunch there-a grilled grouper sandwich and coleslaw.  Now Donaldo is going for his first walk.  But since it is 48 degrees with a windchill of somewhere lower than that, I chose to stay in.  Can you blame me?  There is even warnings out for riptides and warm people not to go into the ocean.  
Things will start warming up nicely by Tuesday and the rest of the week; so glad the sun is out at least.  Now for a Bird's Eye View of a few firsts:

Glad you arrived safe and sound!
There is a lot to be said for going to the same area year after year. It's fun to go to your favorites.

On the plane Honey and I start whispering to each other "chicken pot pie!!!" because we know that will be our first meal at Perkins!!

Have a wonderful, relaxing trip!
