Cinco De Mayo – a bit Kentucky style…
After the art show, Sharmila and I landed up in Bombay Lounge to grab some drinks and Indian appetizers. Nika there absolutely makes the best cocktails ever. The smoked Old Fashioned was outstanding. (I liked her choice of burning cherry wood more than my own hickory wood). And then to be compliant with Cinco De Mayo, we had a mango margarita too!

The moon was resplendent tonight during our walk to Avalon

Quiet evening with Jay Jay
Sharmila was not home. So, both of us sat in a corner of Chiringa and had some quiet time. I caught up with some reading – a book and the Economist – and he focused on people watching. (completely ignored the dogs trying to get his attention).

Goodbye Abaco! Hope to see you soon..
We will miss our beach!
That was an unexpected bonanza
You remember how I saw my first sun halo yesterday? Well, get this… had yet another first time experience sitting outside while having dinner today.
The four of us were busy eating when my eyes caught something in the sky. My intuitive reaction was that it was a firecracker. I called out to the rest to show it. However, it seemed very different from a firecracker. For one, it kept on going for a far longer time than a firecracker. For another, it seemed too bright.
A few of the other diners got up to see it too.
We then realized that what we saw was a rocket launch. It was a first time for all of us. I am glad I got a video of it – at least for part of the journey.
Googling up Cape Canaveral schedule, we also realized that it was a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket!!
