Day 323, Sunday May 11th - a day of rest

Day 323, Sunday May 11th 

Julie on the hunt for breakfast
Morning finds us back on the boat starting to research anchorages upstream.  We have decided to do some errands today and leave tomorrow, so first thing we head to town looking for a breakfast spot.  Sadly all the restaurants are closed on Sundays except for one and we don’t feel like walking to town.  It is about 80 degrees farenheit (~27 degrees Celcius) by 8:30 a.m., so it is going to be a scorcher today.  When we had left we had been hunting for sunshine to sit in as the shady spots were cool.  It is not going to be like that today.  We go straight for the grocers and buy breakfast food (we had emptied the fridge and turned it off while we were away so had absolutely no food available to eat).


One of the store cashiers offered her car up to the bag boy to give us a ride back to the marina which was very much appreciated. 

By 10:30 we are finally getting our first coffee and some sustenance in our tummies.  We had not eaten since about 3:30 the day before as the flight schedules and delays interfered with normal scheduling.  Julie was particularly famished.

The rest of the day was spent blogging, and cleaning.  We scrubbed down the boat and Julie tackled some of the inside woodwork, and fibreglass.  It was very hot so the pace was not very fast.  We also went for a bit of a walk, but it was short-lived due to heat.  We did make it to the brand new Walmart Express where we got some fresh vegetables

We enjoy supper on the boat and a game of Kings Cribbage..

Cheers
Julie and Dawson
