Friday - June 22

We were off this morning heading to "Fair Pour" - neat coffee shop across the bridge - my kind of  coffee café with all natural flavors for my latte - I had maple cinnamon and it was delish along with our pastries.    And then we were off to Pittsford just 5 miles away - another neat little village along the canal and where we'll stop when we return this way coming back from Buffalo.
 
Most of the shops were closed - still too early but I could tell it was "my kind of town"!
On to Rochester and the George Eastman museum and home which is the oldest museum dedicated to photography and opened in 1949.   This was where Kodak all began and so enjoyed touring the museum and his fabulous 35,000 sq. ft. mansion with 15 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, etc.,    George never married - a very good docent (Sherry) and tour.
 
We had a light lunch at the museum café which was very good and then drove around Rochester.
 
Along the way we saw so many beautiful older homes and love all the unique architecture!
 
Back to Fairport and Catrina after a quick stop at Top's for a few groceries.
 
This afternoon John and Lucas came by and Mark took Lucas for 3 separate dinghy rides - Lucas loved the "little" boat!

Brian, Emma and Evan came on Catrina for drinks/snacks and visiting and then we all enjoyed a great dinner at Mulconry's Irish Pub.
 
  Back to Catrina for more visiting an then said our good byes to Brain, Emma and boys - hope to see them again soon.    What a delight that Lucas is.....very vocal, but such good manners and just a little sweetie!
 
And then there's Evan....
