We decided to stay a second day. Made a wonderful breakfast
on the boat and we relaxed for a bit. Don got his USA Today fix so he was fine.
We needed a few things for the boat so Don got the bikes ready but when he was
putting on the baskets he dropped one into the water by the side of the boat.
The basket also had our chain lock in it.... He and the Looper on the boat
beside us jimmy rigged some poles and hooks and by a stroke of luck he managed
to hook the handles of the basket and also by luck the chain was still inside.
We rode our bikes to the West Marine on their boardwalk bike path which took us
everywhere. We needed a new life ring which Don brought back to the boat. One
more thing off the check list of things to buy.... Went to see the US Boarder
Protection people at the Coast Guard Station to check on how we register our
movements in Michigan. They were very helpful, but as we have found that really
no one really knows. We have never got the same answer from anyone. After that
we went for another long bike ride. It is a safe city to ride your bikes in.
Stopped for a beer and then back to boat. The weather has been nice, around mid
80's and cool nites. The city has lots of sculptures around the town. This one
was down on the boardwalk by the boat. We decided to go back and have a beer at
The Kirby. It has been warm and humid, so a nice cold beer or two worked
wonders. Ordered some nachos to nibble on, (would not advise ordering them, 4
out of 10 on our rating system) Back at the boat Don just wanted to read the
paper so I worked on this ---- blog. For all of you bloggers out there my hat
goes off to you'al bvecause it is alot of work. Came back to the boat and
picked up the bikes and went for a ride. That nite as the nite before they do a
lite and water show across the river. This time I put the camera on the tri-pod
and videoed it. It came out not to bad. We have certainly enjoyed the shows....
A nip cap them off to bed.....
