Mon, Jan 25, 2010 - Captiva Island ('Tween Waters)

With all the sun and fun and extra drinks yesterday, we were moving a little more slowly this morning. We skipped the breakfast buffet and waited until around noon to meet up with JoEllen and Mark for a walk along the beach. We headed in the opposite direction from our previous walks in search of the Mucky Duck Tavern, another local hotspot. We did some shelling along the way and came to the Mucky Duck where we found that dogs were allowed at the outside tables so we stopped for some lunch. We opted to walk back through town instead of along the beach and had a chance to see a few of the local establishments and some nice residential areas.

After our walk, JoEllen and Mark went to the beach and Maureen and Gale headed for the pool for some relaxation. Later in the afternoon, Gale took everyone for a dinghy ride. We found our way back into a quiet, secluded area where there were a couple of sunken boats left to rust. The open area was surrounded by mangroves and we saw many beautiful birds.
