Bike Ride to Venice

It was a beautiful Saturday morning and our plan for the day was to head off on our bikes to find the “Upper Crust Bakery” in Venice.  We went to the end of the Legacy Trail and wound ourselves around the streets until we found downtown Venice. We were surprised it really wasn’t too far off the trail and stopped for a coffee and scone – that is what they are famous for.

I had a Raisin Scone, Brian had the Apricot!

A gentleman sitting at an adjacent table saw us taking pictures and asked us if we wanted him to take our picture. 

It was a really nice bike ride, we rode approximately 32 miles and were gone for about 2 1/2 hours.  It was a really nice way to start the day.  We then came home and I had bought a needlepoint project to work on last night, so I got started on it while watching a very old movie with Bette Davis in it called “The Letter” while Brian sat on the balcony reading his book.  We are heading out to eat at Panera Bread tonight and just have a relaxing evening.  I can’t believe a week has gone by already. 

Here are some pictures of the pool at our condo complex where we are working on our tans!  We can’t come back to Canada without a tan!
