Back in the USA and well rested, today was just a pleasant day. Sat at Caribou coffee reading for a while, went to the airport and picked up the lovely Francine & Carly, who will be joining me for leg 2 of my quest. We got back to the hotel, of course Carly was starving so we went out to a nice little restaurant for breakfast before Carly's dad Jim picked her up. (Jim lives in Alabama.) So Carly's off to spend the holiday with relatives she hasn't seen before and to meet some more of her cousins. TLF and I spent the day shopping and doing a little cross-training.
Dinner was special. The Palm Restaurant. The Palm is one of the world's nicest restaurants, coincidentally started by Dr. Rick's grandfather. (Rick is one of my training partners, Grand Rapids Marathon pace team guy, legendary pickle juice mogel.) When we arrived, there was a bottle of Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin, compliments of the Ganzi family to accompany our meal.
A great relaxing day. Nice.
