Dinner in Marina del Rey


Last night Steve Barnes, Alan and myself escaped the noisy and congested environs of LAX and found a great restaurant down the road in Marina del Rey.  There in the warm yellow light on the balcony, elevated gas heaters radiating just enough heat to keep the chill away--it was something like 17 C--we chatted and dined and chatted.  The tide was low and the wind was light.  We talked of eclipses past, our present eclipse and who's doing what, future eclipse adventures, and eclipses of our active imaginations. We even discussed some non-eclipse astronomical topics... and maybe a few others.

Tomorrow we fly Air Tahiti Nui to Pape'ete and arrive after sunset.
