Day 17 November 22 2012 “THANKSGIVING DAY”

“HAPPY THANKSGIVING”  to all my family, friends,and blog readers! I hope you have a wonderful one! Steve and I slept in got up at 8 and started getting ready to go eat Thanksgiving Dinner at Turner Marine with Linda and Pete. I went to take a shower and come back to boat to get things ready to go. We went to their boat which is out of the water for a bottom job and some other maintenance. You have to repaint and recoat the bottom of your boat every several years depending upon amount of time in salt or fresh water. I got a tour of their beautiful boat and was surprised at how much room it has it is awesome, and beautifully decorated. We drove to Turner marine and due to miscommunication the dinner had been yesterday. We got to meet some new people at this marina and learn about some great charts and more tips on where we are going. Boating people offer some wonderful tips and advice on what to do when on the water. One couple was from Canada and very friendly. Well needless to say we were all hungry and needed food. So we went back to Fairhope (the only place that had a restaurant open on Thanksgiving Day! The restaurant was called Tamaras, they had a buffet and endless champagne.Not a big champagne drinker i had the endless unsweet tea. The buffet was great all the food was wonderful. We felt like that family in christmas story waiting on the waiters to come out and sing “deck the halls with boughs of horry fa ra ra ra ra ra ra ra ra” lol (even though it wasn’t Chinese food) After we ate we made it back to the marina where Linda and I left the guys and went to find the Rave theater and watch “Breaking Dawn Part II”. We loved it!  I am now sitting in the laundry room waiting on the slow dryer to finish my clothes then i am going to bed. I hope everyone had a day as wonderful as ours! Stay tuned!! 🙂
