Keeping Dry

Rain has a horrible tendency to screw up plans, and so would begin the story of my Saturday. Waking up to hear the sound of rain pelting off my window, put a wicked spin on our plans for a day of beach bumming… But we’re ambitious and I refused to let Mother Nature win this battle, so, we set out for the downtown region and did our best to make a positive day in light of the negativity of the weather. Our mission was an outstanding success.. plenty of shopping and purchases to ease our sad hearts.. followed by a few hours cozy and dry inside a coffee shop with a delicious chai latte to keep me satisfied, and scrabble to stimulate our brains and my need for competition. Perhaps the most entertaining portion of the afternoon involved taking to the streets in search of a restaurant for dinner…. So, you take an over populated county, and a culture that has zero regard for personal space. Now, give them all large umbrellas with sharp pointed edges and test your luck at maneuverability. GO!
