Day 22 Captiva 2019

Sunday, Feb 24

We were up early at 6 for coffee and pastries. We headed to Sanibel Farmer's Market at 8:30. Was not as crowded as last Sunday and again, it was nice to not have dogs everywhere.  It was pleasant to shop with out so many people. We bought tomatoes-cherry, Roma and beefsteak, lettuces, jalapeno peppers, corn, strawberries, zucchini, lemons, guacamole and more.

We ate breakfast at The Island Cow...good timing at 9:30. No wait. I had  one egg poached served with cow spuds, toast and fresh fruit (melon not ripe). Al had the special 2 eggs, 2 Pancakes, 3 sausage links, spuds, grits, and fruit.  I ate his grits. Breakfast served with basket of muffins.
Great Breakfast!
We stopped at Periwinkle Shops at 11:00...but not open until noon. We shopped at Jerry's--wine, milk, coffee, pastries, ginger ale, Pepsi,  chips, crackers. We drove through DDWR on the way back...saw an alligator at second pond. Lot of ibis and other birds feeding....low tide. More than 50  blue winged teals and lot of feeding willets.

For dinner  Al grilled perfectly cooked steak served with corn on cob, green salad with cherry tomatoes and radishes.
