Still enjoying

Last Sunday, being February 2, was Groundhog Day, and, in keeping with the theme, I introduced K and C to the movie on Saturday evening.  Now they did not find it as funny as I had when I first saw it, but enjoyed it, getting the theme of redemption much sooner than I had.  On Sunday morning, there was a post on my Facebook page for the new commercial for the Jeep Gladiator and it was based on that movie, even having Bill Murray revive the role and go with the theme of repeating February 2 over and over again.  However, the Jeep people inserted an orange Gladiator into the video and Murray comments "That's different"'. 

This is our sixth visit to Ponta Delgada and obviously, we enjoy the place very much.  However, there are few of the first time 'oh Wow's left here,  but there are enough 'that's different' to still capture the thrill of discovery:  our favourite hotel has been remodeled, the bike path to Lagoa has been improved and extended, etc.  And most of the things we love about the place are the same:  the harbour still brings together all manner of watercraft, the birds of paradise are in bloom as well as some fabulous double yellow hibiscus, the cheese is as varied and delicious as ever, the wine as inexpensive, the daytime temperatures in the mid to high teens,  the people as helpful and friendly.

Here is our evening stroll.  Love it!
