The afternoon was lovely. Just after 4:00, Rita and Ian had talked to their grandchildren on the iPad picture. Then we four decided to take a walk. Before we knew it, we had walked all the way to the Fajita Republic restaurant, which was the longest distance we have taken in that direction. On the way back home we were so pleased with ourselves that we stopped at Ciao for a drink and an appetizer. I was ahead of everyone else so I ordered.
The restaurant was totally open so it was pleasant as twilight appeared and the lights appeared. Our intention was to return home for dinner but we weighed the pros and cons of eating out or going home and finally settled on eating at the restaurant, for no good reason other than the fact that we were enjoying ourselves. The weather was perfect for sitting outside and we were feeling smug after speaking to the Ottawa family.
The old man who owns the restaurants came by to give us each a tangerine. We had not seen him last year but he looked great. And he was pleased to see us too. This was the first time we have had dinner at Ciao, which just opened two years ago. The food was excellent and we enjoyed our dinner. We thought we were just going for a walk but ended up with a full blown evening excursion. A good time was had by all.
