Goodyear Lunch - 08/16/19

16 August 2019 | Mississauga, Ontario, Canada

Slept thru until after 8 am. Got up and dressed. Had breakfast. Then Jacquie, Mark and I took a walk around the neighborhood. The sun was shining and warm. I really didn't need to wear a sweater. The temperature reached 25C today. I thought it was supposed to be cooler. We headed back and showered. Then got dressed for our planned lunch with our Goodyear friends. We arrived around 11:30. Glen and Jacquie did a wonderful job organizing this get together. Thanks so much to Glen, Jack, Jean, Vince, Margaret, Terry and Jacquie for attending our lovely lunch at Symposium. We had such a great time. Mark picked out some pictures from our sailing adventure and we had a captive audience as we both chatted about our some of our key stops. It was almost 3 pm when we left. Stopped at Longos for a few groceries. Enjoyed some down time. Mark was researching our route for tomorrow and Sunday. We have one last Canadian get together for lunch tomorrow. Helped Jacquie prep for dinner. It was turned out very delicious. We have dessert heating in the oven. Watching some of the Toronto Blue Jays game against Seattle. At least they have a commanding lead. It's really hard to believe that our time in Canada is coming to an end. We are planning to get our Florida License plate and then drive back to West Point, New York, for a Rice football game. Thanks for all your emails and messages. Love hearing from you.

About:
We are both computer folks that were live aboard cruisers back in the 90s. We settled in Jacksonville Florida after escaping the great white north and cruising the Bahamas, T&C, DR and points south down to Trinidad. [...]
Extra: Charabia is a French slang word for nonsense or gibberish. It derives from Arabic "sharab" which means alcohol.When you drink (too much) alcohol, you start talking Charabia. The original owners named her and Mark liked the name so it stuck.
