When in Florida...

... find an Irish pub!

It was a dark and stormy day. But we didn't let the rain stop us. We spent the day in the historic part of Naples. We walked on the beach and watched some dolphins playing, or feeding, just off the shore. We window shopped, but were too wet to go into the shops (much to Kevin and Allen's relief).

And then we found McCabe's Irish Pub, and found a familiar feel to settle into and have a pint or two. We found out from our server that the original Tommy Bahama's pub wasn't too far away. By the time we got there, it was pouring down rain, but we still sat at a table outside under a large umbrella... still feeling right at home. The rain here is so nice because it is warm.

My brother and his wife have a really lovely home in Naples that we are lucky enough to be able to use. We would rather bring our meals in and sit out by the pool than go out to dinner. I am not sure, however, that we are saving any money at the local "Whole Foods" grocery store. It is a great food market, and we seem to spend quite a bit each time we go (great wines!).

Today is supposed to rain and be cloudy, but so far the sun is out. So we are off to explore again. Stay posted... I will keep you up-to-date on our adventures!
