Today was much more relaxed. We did go snorkelling but since I didn't record anything I can't tell you about it. Our late afternoon was the highlight of the day and it involved wine and food. There is a restaurant perched on the hill near us and it advertised a happy hour from 4 to 6. The Magnolia (
Magnolia Restaurant ) had been recommended to us by a new friend in Barrie who used to live here. The view from Magnolia is spectacular overlooking the marina, Turtle Cove, the barrier reefand Grace Bay. We knew, that if we could, we would just sit there and stare for hours on end. We sipped on a nice Penfold's red wine and shared three different appetizers over two hours. The first dish was crab cakes served over a delectable salad of grilled vegetables. The second was chicken and vegetable spring rolls with an asian chili dip. Also excellent. The third was a mushroom and goat cheese strudel with a pesto garnish which was also tasty but the filling was just a touch dry. The plan was to share four appies but we were quite satisfied with just three.
