Dunedin - Nov '17 Part 2






Spiritus feels pampered here at Marker 1 Marina in beautiful Dunedin...

....and so does her lucky crew!!!




Cousin Julie lives in nearby Clearwater and gets to play with us on weekends.
Every day is not a weekend for Julie since she is not retired!



Toasting to Eddy reaching Medicare age!!




Linda enjoyed her first grouper reuben at the popular "Frenchy's" . . . pure deliciousness!




We love the fabulous Arts & Crafts Shows in Dunedin.
Downtown streets were closed to traffic this weekend so a variety of artists could highlight their talents.




Captain Eddy tries to figure out how to get one of these cool metal sculptures on Spiritus!




Some of downtown Dunedin's charming old homes have been converted into coffee shops and cafes.





We discovered "Honu", a restaurant which features mouth-watering Hawaiian dishes!





Did we mention how "dog friendly" Dunedin is??




It was so much fun to reunite with Gold Loopers, Jim & Connie, originally from Michigan.
They fell in love with the area while on the Loop and have retired here. 




In true Looper spirit, our Gold Looper friends met our pre-Looper friends and offered guidance, encouragement and inspiration.  Mark & Lezlie will set sail in January!!




Lucky Us!!!  Our dear friends drove down from Navarre and brought Mom Johnsen.
We felt so blessed to celebrate Thanksgiving week together and share our paradise with them.




A Bloody Mary toast kicks off our Thanksgiving day!!




Goddaughter Sarah joined us for Thanksgiving dinner at Cricketers.
The oldest and youngest embrace in a sweet, reunion hug!!




Linda and her bestie share smiles at our "home-is-where-the-boat-floats"!




Riding the handy dandy Jolley Trolley from Dunedin to Tarpon Springs for some Greek culture....

.... and delicious Greek food!  OPAH!!!




Eddy and the two moms window shopping after visiting Hellas Bakery.
Maybe someone went into at least ONE store!



Merry Christmas from the Johnsens on the sponge docks in Tarpon Springs!
