Jupiter, florida, January 2015

David and I got to go visit Susan's Mother, Phyllis's in her beautiful home in Jupiter which is North of Palm Beach and Miami.  What a beautiful town, on the water,  and it was warm!  We had some nice meals in really nice restaurants nearby, like Jetty's and Guanobano's.

Susan took care of Phyllis because she had broken her foot in a fall.  Phyllis is herself a caretaker, so it never is easy to let others help you.  It was lovely to see her again.  We shared a room on the Norwegian cruise line's Hawaiian cruise.  We had a lovely time playing bridge on the cruise, and we all four also played bridge on this visit.

David and I were able to go to the Palm Beach Mall and shop at Chico's.  We stopped on the way back and checked out the Atlantic Ocean.  We had to dip our feet into this ocean because we will be missing it since the cruise doesn't start until Singapore.  Now we have officially seen and dipped our toes into the Atlantic Ocean.

Monday we got to spend the morning on the beach in the sun and read and walked on the sand.  then we had lunch at a restaurant in the beach park called Larry's Loggerhead cafe - who knew it had the best black bean soup.  They put fruit colis and yoghurt on the top.  Delicious.  After  our 3 hour drive home Susan's boyfriend Jim had cooked a roast lamb dinner for us.  He is a keeper.
