Day 299
Tuesday, 07/06/21, we decided to cut ourselves some slack and spend a lazy, non-traveling day in our slip, while at the same time avoiding some less-than-perfect weather conditions out in the Atlantic.
We enjoyed an easy morning, drinking coffee, and watching dozens of hungry seagulls dive-bombing Legacy’s bow, as the local fishermen cleaned their catches right next to our slip. 😐 Once again, the working world carried on around us, as we continued to fully enjoy being retired. 😉
We scheduled an Uber to pick us up in the parking lot of the Shipwreck Grill and then take us to CVS to pick-up our latest prescription refills and other supplies. As we rode around Brielle (which is directly adjacent to Manasquan), it turned out to be a prettier area than we’d expected. Just around the corner from CVS, we found Esposito’s restaurant for lunch. This place served some of the best pizza either of us had eaten in awhile, so we basically stuffed ourselves before catching another Uber ride back to our boat.
We laid low for the rest of the day, observing the sights and sounds around us in this working marina, and staying out of the early July weather that had suddenly turned sweltering. I worked some more on this blog while the captain planned our upcoming cruising routes.
