Thanks, Tereasa,
A fresh wind nedded to blow from a different direction.
My boys were 5 and 3 the first time we came over for a day trip to the beach. When we got off the ferry we got on one of the 25+ seat vans. It was standing room only and I lost contact with Ben the 3 yr. old. I knew he was on the van so wasn't too worried. Then I saw him sitting on a local gentleman's lap-both having a wonderful time communicating in a way only a young boy and elderly man can. Years later my wife and I were waiting in line for the fruit truck when it started to rain. There was a group of people sheltered under an overhang but no more room for us. Before we had time to look for a dry spot a man came out with an umbrella for us. Smiles all around was thanks enough.
What a wonderful place and gracious people.
David
