It was a somewhat cloudy day today, windy but still very warm. I had decided to go to the beach and so off I went after a late breakfast in my room!
I set myself up on the sand and it was nice to relax in the sea air. After a bit of a read I decided to have a paddle, the water was very pleasant although there were lost of waves!. There was a RIP warning out and I could feel the undertow! There were a couple of people in the water, one a surfer, not sure why they ignore the warnings!! Later more surfers turned up and a kite surfer was also having some fun!
After an hour or so, I decided to wander up to Worth Avenue, I saw many lizards scuttling round as i walked along! The shuttle driver had mentioned the Avenue to me and I had noticed on the map there was a Starbucks there. Well, I finally found it tucked away behind Gucci and below Saks, lol!! They obviously thought it would be too tacky to have it on the Avenue itself! Talk about opulent, I now really know how the other half live, lol!! I bumped into a couple of Londoners who live out here now! Apparently, 45's house is not far from here, so I am pleased he is somewhere else this weekend!
The shuttle finally found me and back at the hotel I discovered the power was out,lol!!! It is at times like these when I wish I was not on the fourth floor but pleased I am not on the top floor (6)! I am thankful I have my own portable router so I could still go online! I had to go back downstairs and discovered the power will be out until tomorrow afternoon so they are relocating us to the Best Western just down the road.
I packed enough for the evening as well as food for tea and breakfast and off I went in the shuttle again! At least the room at BW has a fridge and microwave so I can cook what I have to. There are no plates but I managed to get some paper ones from reception.
So time to shower and then have tea!!
