My plans to get out and photograph on our first evening in Mystic were foiled by a chance meeting with a fellow retired banker – albeit from Florida – and her sister who lives in a condo near our hotel. We had a lovely conversation over drinks and, while I did manage to grab a few photos within close proximity to my chair on the deck, the camaraderie was more compelling than the photography! 
I’ll try again in the morning!
Excuses! Where’s our images???
What an opportunity to run into them. I would do the same.
Well, I didn’t want to let go of my drink for very long, although I did set it down long enough for this one! And a few more.
That’s one of the many things that I love about traveling, the chance encounter of a good conversationalist, and a nice, relaxing place to have that conversation.
Absolutely, Paul. People seem to be quite friendly here…some are even pleasant to talk to!
