Today we ventured South to Hallandale Beach to spend a very enjoyable afternoon with Gary and Marilyn, our friends from the Tantallon area of Nova Scotia. They winter in a condo in Hallandale Beach. As you can see by the clothes, it wasn't a tropical day at all. Eight degrees to be exact.





From their window you can see beauties like this sail by along the Intercoastal.







Another day, another all you can eat buffet. When will it ever end? The caloric intake must be obscene.







We thought about sneaking off with Gary's Corvette but he kept a pretty close eye on us.

After this we hit a mall, still looking for shoes. What a mess. The mall was a small city in itself, you drove around this circular, 2 lane driveway that allowed you to access parking areas to the left or right whenever you dared venture out of your lane. Traffic cops with loud whistles tried to bring some order to the chaos. What it amounted two was a very large truck trying to stay in a very narrow lane with cars coming from every direction. Once we managed to get inside the building one felt like a very small ant in a very large ants nest crawling with millions of other ants. Kathy could not find shoes to her liking and although I did manage to locate a croc store I refused to attempt a buy under such barbaric conditions. I don't need shoes that badly! I have vowed never to return to that place. I think the name of the place was The Adventura Mall, near Hollywood, Florida. This is fair warning to any man who values his sanity.
