The beach is nice this time of year. Sure, the water is really too cold to swim in, but that means the crowds are gone. I got to spend most of the day just kind of lounging around, trying to stay warm and keep the sand out my eyes. I met these two girls.
They said they were here for a sales conference. It’s pretty lucky to get a paid trip to the beach, even if it’s in the middle of winter. They didn’t seem to think so, I guess they’ve never had to spend a rainy weekend in the Lansing Ramada. We chatted a bit, mostly about our summer plans, before they had to head off to some meet and greet. I snapped this shot as they were walking away.
The wind really picked up about an hour after they left and I’ve been forced to seek shelter in the hotel bar, where I’m having a margarita or two with a late lunch. The food’s terrible and I’m pretty sure the drinks are more water than anything else, but at least it’s warm.
I think I’ll walk downtown tonight. There’s supposed to be a Mediterranean place that’s just to die for.
more please!
