Thanks Athol, we had a great time and the people that came in made it really worthwhile. One couple lost everything and she started crying. Later when she and her husband were so happy with what we were doing she said that she wished she had known about us coming and she would have cooked up a meal for all of us and brought it in.

After hours when we were on our own we walked and got to sample some wonderful food. We didn't make it to the beach as we were not there long enough. However, we were able to go to the waterfront and eat at a restaurant looking out on the water and have a beautiful sunset. I wouldn't mind living in Pensacola and hope to come back when I have more time.
