Naples Part 1

Lee and I had a fantastic time on our trip to Naples, FL. But really...it isn't hard to enjoy yourself on an all expenses paid vacation, is it?

Every night we had dinner with the other award winner, the President and VP of the company and all of the spouses. I am not really used to 4 hour meals. I got a little antsy toward the end. Every meal was at a different fancy restaurant. The meals consisted of chatting, ordering pre-dinner cocktails, selecting the wines for the meals, ordering appetizers, ordering salads, ordering the entrees, ordering dessert/after dinner drinks, and then chatting until everyone as ready. I think I gained a little weight, but it was totally worth it.

This was the view from out room's balcony. Notice the little sailboat. I thought it looked like a painting or postcard.

This was our whole group after dinner the second night.

Friday morning we went on a catamaran shelling trip to an uninhabited island. The first thing we saw as we sailed to our destination were dolphins. There were a whole bunch. Apparently they feed in the shallow parts of the gulf. Who knew?

Lee gets horrible motion sickness, but he was okay. He took a little Dramamine and dozed off on the way to the island.

Our Ziploc full of shells and miles of beautiful coastline. The water was a little cold, but the sunshine kept us warm.
