Coeur d'Alene (coor da lane) is just thee most charming town - we had a fun day starting with coffee/delicious pastries at the Coeur d'Alene Coffee Co (recommended by Erin). What a cool place but then we saw many coffee shops around town. Last August, Erin and Ryan visited this town and told us how much they enjoyed it - also Mark's brother Tom and Beth have been here! If you have a bucket list, add this to it! 😊
The weather was MUCH better than yesterday and very pleasant walking around downtown - Mark found a shirt and cap to buy and we just meandered around the shops and restaurants (there are LOTS).
We had lunch at Dockside (part of the beautiful Coeur d'Alene golf resort) - great meal topped off with huckleberry cobbler! Huckleberries are BIG in Idaho.
After lunch we walked around a bit more - there are several wonderful trails in the area. Mark's foot was hurting so we came back to the hotel and rested a bit. No dinner tonight - still stuffed from lunch. We did watch online Mass from Immaculate Conception in Port Clinton since we missed yesterday. Father Jonathan was out of town for a 40th anniversary of his friend's ordination in Cincinnati. The priest from Put in Bay said Mass.
After Mass there was going to be a procession outside for the feast of Corpus Christi, but because of the extreme heat, it was going to be a very short procession. We took part in that a few years ago and then enjoyed a nice lunch with other parishioners.
