I love Easter! It reminds me of traditions from back home. The anticipation is set with the forty day lent, it continues with Palm Sunday and then Good Friday, that people use for confession, the tradition of the Easter egg coloring with kids, the culmination of Easter Sunday with the Easter baskets, good food, spring colors and overall wonderful family and friends time...
We had a lovely Easter week-end spent with friends in town all the way from...Miami. A very busy couple, Tina and Al feel on vacation every time they come over because it's their downtime to relax, change the scenery and kick back. They have been friends with my husband for 15 years and they kept in contact regularly. I love it when they visit because it allows us to be tourists in our own town.
So, on Saturday we spent the afternoon at Snook Inn, on Marco Island.
A very relaxed place on the water, with a great salad bar and live band. We would stop by every time we'd be out on the boat, because you can just tie up, grab some lunch and go back to your fun on the water. It has great views and people love to be right by the water.
We had some delicious crabcakes and, of course, the salad bar. It's fantastic, you can't miss it! For only $6.99 you can pile up your plate as many times as you want. Healthy stuff too.
It was important to get a "fruity drink". Unfortunately, they didn't have umbrellas!
Al, Tina and Adrian
This next one, I wanted to be in it too but apparently even in full auto mode it's hard to take a photo that would be focused on everyone...
Us by the water.
Today, our friends leaving around noon, we were lazy...hanging on the new carpet some of us just loooooooooveee...
...drinking refreshing orange-ade...
...hanging out outside, where spring is in full bloom...
...and eating yummy corn pudding
It's hard to go back to work tomorrow after such a relaxed week-end but we're looking forward to a busy and efficient week.
Have a great week everyone!
