Today we are leaving Titusville and heading to New Smyrna Beach. It was a pretty easy travel day. We had a nice trip through a canal where we saw lots of manatees!!! The manatees were awesome!!! They are pretty cool animals!!! The area reminded us of the fishing villages in Port O’Connor TX.
We arrived in New Smyrna Beach at 2:00pm. We had time to decide where we wanted to go for dinner. We decided to go to The Garlic. They do not take reservations and advised a 90 minute wait. We arrived at 4:30 and had a few cocktails while listening to some good music.
Finally seated at 6pm. The place is outstanding!!!! Well worth the wait. Very eclectic interior and delicious food and awesome dinner entertainment as well. We all had a wonderful meal!!! I had osso bucco and it was so yummy!!! Couldn’t eat it all and brought half of it home with me!!! Unfortunately Richard forgot it was in his backpack until the next day. We all had a great time at this restaurant!!!
We came home and went to bed except for Richard who stayed up to do laundry!!! I love you honey!!!
I love you too even if I long ago had to resign my man card!
