Yesterday, in Day 6 of my Floridan adventure, was a gorgeous day. Mom Mom and I picked up magazines for my flight travel (Seventeen and Elle now) as well as stopping by Stein Mart. I grabbed a beautiful vinyl plastic BRIGHT YELLOW aviator jacket (loads of adjectives) combining money from Mom Mom & Pop Pop's birthday gift and part of Nana & Grandee's school clothes gift. Talk about a grandparental collaboration!
After lunch at the club (magnificent quesadillas and cookies) we went fishing! We took the boat for a grand two hours and it was sublime. I got lots and lots of photos which I will present in a moment. I even tanned a bit, which is saying something. It was really wonderful.
I watched another Miss Marple but an old one this time, not the one with Helen Hayes. Then Mom Mom cooked shrimp alfredo fettucini (fabulous) and she and I watched the Masterpiece Theatre rendition of Northanger Abbey which was much better than the old one.
This morning, we went surf fishing! That's when you fish off the beach. I don't have any photos, but it was really fun because it's pretty today. I learned how to throw the line out (casting that has nothing to do with drama) and right at the end I caught a small bass. It was lovely, but not eatable so it got to live another day and I got a nice feeling out of it.
I have had a really amazing time in Florida. More reflections and all later, but for now, pray for safe travel and that my culture shock back into Sayers won't be too bad!
