Relaxing in Ft. Lauderdale


Once we got ourselves together, we went for breakfast at our favourite spot in this area, the Harbour Café. We should have called ahead for a reservation! Boy, was it busy, and the food was just as good as before. Once we were finished we decided that we needed to work some of those calories off, and headed to the Galleria Mall to wander around a little. The Black Friday crowds had thinned out considerably so it was an easy walk around, but we discovered that the one or two things we wanted to price were actually cheaper at home!

We headed back to the hotel to relax at the pool and on the terrace for the afternoon, and watch the cruise ships go out before meeting Susan and Byron for dinner.

 
 

A couple of hours at the pool, with a cool drink in between, and a quick dip in the ocean and it was time to get ready for dinner. We had skipped lunch in preparation for dinner, and finished the rest of our cheese and crackers on the terrace.

We had a wonderful dinner with Susan and Byron, and managed to surprise him with a bag full of Tim-Tams that we brought along from home


.All in all, it was a lovely day and put us all in the mood for cruising!  This afternoon we’ll be on board. More to update later!
