Catching up

Every Sunday morning I look forward to getting a call from my dear friend Lorraine back home and we have a great chat but lately she has been giving me a hard time because I haven't been updating this Blog. So, Lorraine, John, Leone and anyone else who us interested here is a hodgepodge  of pics and captions to bring you up to date. 

When I mentioned to our friend Mary that we like German food she and Pat  drove us to Sanford to the best schnitzel restaurant  ever!

This pic didn't turn out quite right somehow but honestly I was standing on my tippy toes!

Not on the same day as the schnitzel feast of course but I have always wanted to try a bacon topped  donut  and there is a great donut shop in Cocoa- the verdict is in - bacon is good on EVERYTHING!
Olivier went for his favorite - an apple fritter which was big enough to feed a family of 4.

So this is the launch of the Falcon heavy rocket that you probably heard about. Didn't look much bigger to me but was very loud and the rocket boosters came back down with a big sonic boom

Elon Musk, the head honcho of SpaceX sent up his first Tesla car in this rocket , and if you look really closely....
just kidding !! You can't actually see the car although we have a friend down here who thought we would be able to - sad to  say she's Canadian1

Lots of interesting creatures wander around here.

We always stop for the Sand Cranes- these two were out on a leisurely stroll down the middle of the road and held up traffic for quite some time. 

Last Monday was a big event in Titusville - The Food Trucks were in town and Pat and Mary joined us  for a great evening out. 

And we don't just eat when we're here (although some times it seems like that's what we do)  but every Monday we  go bowling- That's our team The CanAm's in second place. Sally, the most competitive one on our team was thrilled - I, on the other hand fear we peaked too early. We'll see.

So, that's it for now Lorraine. I will try to do better in the remaining weeks we are here. Thanks for your interest. Talk to you next Sunday.
