And that was after a breakfast on the balcony of pop-tarts and a fresh peach &#8211; great way to start the day.<\/p>\n<p>We did the tourist thing in the afternoon and were going to meet up with the rest of the crew for dinner. Just as we were about to pay the $5.00 fee to go on the part of the island where the restaurant was, we got a text with a change of plans. Very close call. We drove through the rain and a couple of swampy parking lots before we got to the newly chosen restaurant. Mexican food and very well done &#8211; though everyone at our table (and the table next to ours) wanted some kind of exception to what was on the menu. We&#8217;re Ohioans, after all. \u00a0 A little pricey, but good.<\/p>\n<p>After dinner I fired up my phone and checked in with my cat&#8217;s caretakers. He was doing well and I was relieved &#8211; then I turned my phone off again. I really tried to avoid electronics this trip and did pretty well &#8211; though I didn&#8217;t go &#8220;cold turkey&#8221; like I had hoped. \u00a0Though I didn&#8217;t do anything work related &#8211; thankfully.<\/p>\n<p>Tuesday morning I fought the ocean and got in a swim &#8211; though the current was so strong I actually lost ground. It was overcast so we decided to go to Savannah that afternoon instead of back to the beach. We explored the riverfront area and saw a HUGE cargo ship come in. Dinner was at Spanky&#8217;s Spuds &#8211; and the Spuds are very much like Jo-jos around here. I picked up some souvenirs and the book &#8220;Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil&#8221; and we headed back to the condo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Up bright and early on Monday morning and back to the ocean for another swim.
