Breakfast at the PYC this morning....we were invited to join the members for fresh blueberries and french toast.  Nice!!!!  We are in the country so will have to wait until tomorrow to rent a car to see the sights in Hyde Park.
Lots of boats out on the water so when they tell you...... pick marinas with a break wall....believe them....it is like being in a bathtub here ....
