Saturday Morning At The Dog Park

I wandered over to the dog park at the Coronado Cays this morning while I waited for my son's soccer game to begin, and found this playful pack of dogs.

You have to love dogs - all they want is someone to take them for a run and throw their ball a few (hundred) times, and their perfectly satisfied!

A Recumbent Tricycle

You know I love bicycles, but I've never ridden one of these hybrids.  It's called a recumbent tricycle, and I see them every so often around Coronado.

This good natured man let me photograph him and his trike today in the Coronado Cays.

Spring Flower In Bloom

This spring poppy caught my eye yesterday outside Calypso Cafe in the Coronado Cays.  Luckily I had my camera with me since our son had a soccer game at the Cays.

The Calypso Cafe is a fairly new, and oh so good.  They have a breakfast, lunch and dinner menu, along with a mellow views of the canal.  It's located next to the Coronado Cays Yacht Club, for those of you who sail. 

Oh, and there are lovely potted flowers and patio tables on the back deck that make this a prime spot to sit back and relax.

The Gondola

Have you ever taken a gondola ride?  We're fortunate to have The Gondola Company here in Coronado, offering gondola rides around the Coronado Cays with Italian singing, warm cozy blankets, and treats to nibble on. 

My husband and I get a sitter and go every December, when the homes and boats at the Cays are decorated with Christmas lights.  Very romantic!
