 On our way home we stopped at a park in Lawreneville (that ended up being a cemetery). Nearby wre these images. This one of a window made from coke bottles.

Idea...
The boardwalk at night right before the police asked everyone to leave the walkway to allow cars to enter

Another idea...
Briefly relaxing inside the ‘fancy room’ of Oceanaire Hotel connected to our hotel. Unoccupied for a few minutes...
Three mini- zones at an eatery presumably offer safety from Covid as well as warmth
Beach horseback riding! 
Surfer dudes in the wintertime wear wetsuits
Navy seals. Paw prints represent the dogs that helped them but perished.

 Nice hippy store cars
Great colors
Love to all!
Our last day we enjoyed food from Pocahontas Restaurant on the vacant 2nd floor of the hotel we’d just left.

Here we are!
Last visit we took the kids flying here.
Green on green.
Fishing!
Lastly, the Covid test. It will probably be negative because we stayed masked, didn’t eat in any restaurants and used the steps not elevators (even to the 23rd floor of the Marriott and the 9th floor of our hotel).
