On Saturday morning, I went for a bike ride around the neighborhood. Then we drove to the beach and walked around for a little. It was too cold and windy to stay too long.
In the afternoon, I took a dip in the freezing pool of the complex. They are having issues heating it, but I believed that the cold water would be good for my sore knee.
For dinner we went to Spanish River Tapas and Wine. It was good, but I was a bit disappointed that the menu was completely different than what I had seen online. I had in my mind what to order, but there was none of it in the menu. So I just chose a few things.
We had feta cheese with honey and pita, a grilled mushroom dish, patatas bravas – spicy potatoes, and fish skewers. For dessert we had Olive oil cake and cheesecake. The food was good and the service very attentive. We will probably go back.
Here are some pictures from my Saturday:






It looks warm and wonderful–It’s cold here.

Hi Mary,
There were some cold days, that I had to wear a hat and gloves to go bicycle riding, but not like the east or Midwest.
Blessings to you!

Looked like a relaxing day, Ana. The mushrooms looked delicious and I’m a sucker for a good cheesecake. 😋

It was a great day! I could take it or leave it, as far as mushrooms are concerned, but these ones were delicious.
I think you would have enjoyed this cheesecake. It was not the typical NY creamy cream cheesecake. It is a Basque cheesecake. It tasted a little like the Italian cheesecake, which is made with ricotta. Not sure if this one had ricotta or not. The brulee top makes it more delicious.
Blessings to you!

Ooh, really lovely pictures.
I’m like you … I like to look at the menu online before I go to a restaurant. I take too long to make up my mind, so it helps to know the options ahead of time. And yes, the menus don’t always match up.
Did the cold water help your knee? It’s definitely good for your skin. 🙂

Same here. I feel pressured to order fast when I am at restaurants, so I like to look at the menu beforehand and have an idea of what to order.
I think the cold water has been helping. I am taking the cold dips every day – it is so reenergizing!
Thank you and blessings to you!

The beach is attractive, but chocolate cake is so much more inviting – to me 😉
How far are you from a beach?

We’re two hours to several beaches (Hilton Head, Savannah area, Charleston area), which is a big plus to living where we do in South Carolina. We’ll be heading over to one or more of them once we get into the spring months.
