Do Alligators Golf?

Even Alligators love golf. As the guys approaced the tee box today, there he was, enjoying the sun. Shortly after they drove up, an Egret approaced and when he saw the gator, his feathers came up like hair on the back of a dog and in slow motion, the Egret did a slow moon walk backwards. It was pretty funny and the guys could only imagine what he was thinking.


While the guys were golfing, the girls went shopping at the outlet mall then had lunch at their favorite place - The Cottage.


After lunch we all met up at the condo in the late afternoon. After a short rest, off to dinner to another favorite restaurant known for the best burgers in town...and they were great.


Following dinner, we were forced to try the bacon, bourbon char pie. Some liked it, some did not.

After dinner we spent some time discussing what we would do tomorrow as a group and when/where we might go on our next adventure.

Unplanned side trip.

Last night we decided to do a 'unplanned side trip', so we studied our AAA France guide book. After some research, we called Hertz and reserved a car. After breakfast it was a short 15-min walk to the agency and in no time, off we went exploring in our little rental. Our near new Fiat 500 for the day. Karen read about this medieval Chàteau about 15-miles from Colmar along the Alsace Wine Route. The drive up to the castle (it's at 2, 500-ft) was very nice through grape vine covered hillsides leading into the forest. As we got close to the castle, there were cars parked along the narrow road for miles. Bill decided we'd go all the way up and see if we might be able to park closer - after all, some peps might be leaving. He was right, and we only had a short walk. Approaching the Castle The Chàteau de Haut Koenigsbourg turns out to be a much-visited castle, looming above the woodlands and countryside below. In fact, it is one of France's most widely v...

We woke up to clouds this morning with 25 mi/hr. wind and a temperature of 46 degrees. Because of the wind, the temperature gauge says it feels like 27…burr! Considering it was near 70 yesterday, this was a dramatic change. But that didn’t stop the Greens or Kellys. But, because of the challenges the Talanians had yesterday, they decided to sleep in and enjoy their morning onboard the Viking Sigrun. Our bus left at 9am for the tulip farm which took us approx. 45-minutes to reach. Although we had a few sprinkles along the way, it had stopped by the time we reached the tulip farm. The farmers wife had set up tables and chairs inside their large covered green house and tractor storage area where they served us coffee, tea, and sweets while she gave us a presentation about the farm. She also had a store with several items for sale. Karen was the only one tempted, so she bought a watercolor reproduction of tulips. The owners wife also had some beautiful murals so we took our pictu...

Discombobulated Day

Late yesterday afternoon (Monday) our Cruise Director got the news that we wouldn’t be able to dock at our planned port, Nijmegan. Our captain got permission to dock there for a short time – long enough to disembark the people who were planning on doing the excursions there. We then sailed away downriver to Emmerich, Germany. We were given many choices as to what we could do about excursions. Our group decided to forgo the excursions in Nijmegan and stay and enjoy the ship as we sailed to Emmerich. We relaxed onboard and when we docked, we had a nice lunch onboard and then decided to stroll around town. Adjacent to our port just a few steps away was St. Martini church and these two interesting statues – a gondolier and an old man watching the river flow by.   It would have been nice in Emmerich except all the stores and restaurants were closed and we were never able to find out why. We enjoyed the walk and beautiful architecture of St. Aldegundis Kirche, who was a Catholic Sa...
