Days 34 & 35 - Loving it here at Emerald Bay

Yesterday was a pretty interesting day, the front moved through and it was a little rough here in the marina! The day was a mixed bag of warm air at the beginning of the day and then the cooler air with the winds picking up but nothing like what everyone seems to be experiencing in the states. It was in the low 70's and pretty windy.

I spent the morning in the laundry room! What fun!! Prior to a week ago this marina was practically empty. In the last 3 days it has filled up with close to 70 boats. With the fronts moving through and a lot of advertising it seems everyone has now found this place! So with everyone coming in, it appears that we all needed to do laundry. We had an assembly line going and worked our way through the process of getting our laundry done. It was great because I found out about a lot of interesting things.

This marina provides free wifi service however with all these boats that came in we are using up the bandwidth and during the day it's difficult to get a connection and keep it.

I took Spike for a walk (or should I say a run) on the beach in the afternoon. We romped and played for a good 40 minutes before he was ready to come back to the marina. Alan hung out on the boat just doing his thing.

Today, we are going to find a TV and watch the NASCAR Race - Daytona 500. This is the first race of the season so we can't miss it. Alan has located a TV that no one knows about in the closed section of the restaurant. He is setting up his own drink and snack bar for the race! I'm sure we will have front row seats!
