We gave Elaine the grand tour of The Villages.
We then drove to Mt Dora. Too rainy and foggy for the hotel porch for lunch.
Plan B: Elaine remembered a restaurant from a weekend trip she once enjoyed in Mt Dora. We found it - in an alley. Cute little place Goblin Market. We had salads and they were great. It's a cute little two-story with a little bar on the second floor.
There is a Cuban restaurant in the alley too. We may have to check that out too.
Also have to check out the flea market up there - Renninger's.
Back in The Villages, Rick and Elaine went back to the Hampton Inn to nap.
We each did a little work and then napped.
At 6:30 they came back to the house for drinks and appetizers before going to Sonny's for ribs. The ribs tonight were only fair.
Since Thursday is Market Night at Sumter Landing, we hoped to give Elaine a feel for the music and the vendors. However, no vendors because of the weather. Great music but only a few people in the square - only one bar was open.
What a January!
We said our good-byes, until Chicago, this Summer.
