The report for this day is gonna be really short.
We woke up as the sun came up like every other day, only a little slower due to the sunburn from the day before. It was Sunday so the plan was to go to Miss Lucy's for brunch. I made some tea and took a few photos while we waited until 9:30 rolled around.

We made our way to Miss Lucy's, which only takes about 2 minutes from Concordia. We arrived at the same time as another couple, early. Then other people started slowly showing up. We just grabbed a table next to the water and hung out for a while until they officially opened. It was a great morning with a nice breeze coming off the water. A nice change from the heat/humidity/no breeze.
For some reason I was craving steak and eggs, so that's what I got. It was pretty good. The jazz started and was totally relaxing. I'd do that every morning if I could.

A few goats were walking around and we were told to chase them off or they really will jump on the table for your food. So we chased some goats off and it was great.
After being stuffed with good food, we headed back to Concordia and just stayed in the shade around the pool the rest of the day. No need to go back out in that sun and make the sunburn worse. We snacked all day and eventually went back to our tent and napped.
By the time dinner started rolling around, we didn't really feel like going anywhere. I wanted to get sunset photos so I just walked around the upper part of Concordia for a while until the sun went down. Meanwhile my gf made some mac and cheese in our tent. Somehow that was actually enough to fill us up and cost way less than a full dinner somewhere.

It was just a lazy day. But a very much needed lazy day.
