Since I didn't get in until so late last night my room service order of coffee didn't get filled however I was able to order through the app coffee and a fruit platter and that came to the door in probably 10 minutes which was quite amazing and so here I am on the balcony having my coffee. It's a little chilly but it's beautiful and I am right in the back of the boat right at the wake and I will put in a picture because this is just awesome.
I had an excursion scheduled for today so went to the meet up place, got on the tender and went to the port. From there we took a lobster boat to Campobello Island. When we got to the island we got on a bus and had to wait to get threw Immigration, which took some time. Then we went to a lighthouse on a hill and the wind was crazy. We learned a bit about it and I walked around the hill. It was pretty. Then back on the bus to the compound. The flowers there were beautiful. Nothing exotic. Basic annuals and a few perennials but there were several beds. We hadn't eaten so I looked for food. The cafe was sit down and it didn't sound like we'd have time to eat so I asked for a raspberry cobbler to go. They packed it up and I found a bench outside, looking at the water, to enjoy it.
The house tour was really interesting. And here's a link to see for yourself. Back on the bus and honestly, I wasn't sure if I was already supposed to be on the bus. No one on the tour looked familiar, but I figured we hadn't been there that long and someone would come looking before driving off. So all was fine and we ended up having to wait for others to get back. The people behind me really complained about everything including the lack of organization and things taking so long. They were right but at the same time I was thinking I'm just relaxing and I can listen to my book and it's just time away and I guess my needs were not the same as theirs.
Evenings are a bit of a fog because I was clearly drinking too much. I met up with Paige and her mom Judy and we went to dinner. We sat at the Concerto dining room because that is freestyle, no reservations needed. They gave us the same table as we had the night before which also means the same wait staff and that was fun. I had the vegan option of Mediterranean eggplant and other assorted roasted vegetables with dumplings which they called meatballs. I think they were lentil and were very tasty. They also had gnocchi with a basil pesto oil and parmesan cheese in a creamy sauce as one of their pasta choices. Page asked if she could get a smaller portion of that and I did the same. To start, I had a crab cake with remoulade sauce. For dessert I had the caramel cheesecake.
We then did the same as the night before and went to the casino and had a more drinks.
