Life at the beach is quite relaxing. Things have been very quiet so far this week. I think that the week-end may be a little bit livelier. Tonight is a special Happy Hour at the complex and the restaurant opens tonight through Sunday.
We have heard more English spoken here in the past few days than we did the whole month of January in Panama City. There are lots of folks from Canada in the complex.
We typically start our day with about a 3 1/2 mile walk on the beach. Sunrise here is around 6:30am.
There is a variety of housing along the beach.

| From the very new, very upscale |
 |
| to the "I am sure that this was very nice at some point in time" |
 |
| In our area that are 2 public beaches amongst the houses and condo developments. These are the shelters built to keep folks out of the sun. |
Down the beach from our condo, we found a place where the local fishermen keep their boats. As you can see they use very small boats, but go out daily and catch fresh fish (including lobster and shrimp) for anyone who wants to buy.

| The white building in the center is the fish market. The blue building is a restaurant for the locals. |

We have been told that the best time to get fresh lobster and shrimp is early in the morning - right around sun-up. Many visitors familiar with this area frequent the fish market. Both Gene and I wish we liked seafood - oh well :(
