Shopping. End of story. For a place that doesn’t appear to have much in the way of shopping, we managed to spend pretty much all day in stores.
Started the day with a very nice breakfast at the Wooden Spoon. This is a little diner with ten tables and a counter. Simple food but done well and another friendly server. Friendly service has been a common theme everywhere.
First stop was a Kmart for some toiletries, etc. Then we hit a string of clothing, shoe, souvineer stores. Rinse and repeat.
About 4:00 we decided that a full lunch was pointless and went on a snack quest. I’m sorry to say thar the best we could find was Wendy’s for a frosty. Marathon has sit down restaurants and fast food, but no snack type places that we could find.
With a second wind, the girls found a few more shops, then we went back to the condo for a little down time before dinner.
For the record, Maewyn got a snorkle set, a watch, and a Vera pencil pouch. Kinnamon scored a new Vera lunch box. Maria was the big winner with a tumbler, a shirt, and a handmade dress. They also got a puzzle for the group.
Oh, and a new table clock for the condo. The original met it’s demise when it slipped from Maria’s hand to the tile floor.
Since we first saw Chappy’s, Maewyn has been plotting for a swim in the restaurant’s pool. We finally relented and made a return trip. While we were waiting for a table I ordered an appetizer from the bar and Maria supervised the swim.
I finally got to see a sunset over the water. No green flash, but still pretty impressive.
Our table was ready and Maewyn’s swim ended. Dinner was uneventful. It was hot.
Condo. Shower. Bed.
