Well, my stroll through the Boardwalk was leisurely. The ocean and the girls were to be viewed as God intended.

Spoke with a few others near the light house, Natural Bridges and at a restaurant, where I enjoyed some awesome lobster enchiladas.

Walked through the Boardwalk again. Beauties on the beach playing volleyball. Got distracted.

After passing through the boardwalk, stopped a burger joint I like. Had a couple fries and a diet coke, struck a brief conversation with a gal. Purdy.

Then trekked to Capitola Pier.

At the end of the pier I enjoyed another Diet Coke, with lemon and took in the expanse of Monterey Bay.

I thought to myself “What a great day!”

Walked into Capitola Village and at a restaurant stood patiently to inquire about a martini.

The two young ladies at the maitre de podium were talking about something and appeared to ignore me.

One turned after a minute and said she would be with me in a moment.

I told them to take their time.

They smiled and talked about something unimportant.

After a few minutes they asked how many in my party.

I asked where I could get a nice dry martini.

One of them escorted me to the bar and said I could order there or take one on the patio and she would be happy to bring it to me while I enjoyed the sunset.

Told her I would be on the deck. She said she would find me.

So I found a great seat next to the canal, which afforded an excellent view of the bay.

A few minutes later my drink arrived and the beautiful gal who had assisted me on the way in handed it to me.

I enjoyed my drink and the sunset.

Total time enjoying the day= 7 hours.

Miles were scored on my fitbit pedometer and my cell phone app.
