WORLD CUP SAILING, MIAMI MARATHON , AND BIDEN !

 Can't believe I haven't made a post in over a week. We are busy continuing to explore the area. We walk almost everywhere and  enjoy that. The Sailboat Regatta really is a big deal.The participants are still here as it is a World Cup and all these sailors of the 49er Class are competing to be in the Olympics. We have had quite a bit of rain and very high winds, but they still go out in it!

OVER 700 SAILORS HERE FROM 67 COUNTRIES COMPETING FOR A SPOT IN THE OLYMPICS

Yesterday, was the Miami Marathon. It went right by our marina, so we walked along that part of the route on our way to yoga. 

COCONUT GROVE SEGMENT OF THE MIAMI MARATHON

Yesterday afternoon, we cultured ourselves and went over to the Theater at the Biltomore in Coral Gables. We saw "It's Only a Play", a Tony Award winning play. The exciting thing about all this was that Joe Biden was staying at the Biltmore. He had flown home from Turkey, but could not land in DC due to the blizzard. As we tried to park, there was a long line of cars with their hoods and trunks open, along with numerous policemen and secret service. There was also 2 bomb sniffing dogs. All the surrounding side streets up to the Biltmore had dozens of motorcycle cops stationed at them . Have to say , this was way more exciting than the play.
