Dinner time!
After arriving...Finding the hotel and unpacking...Meeting up at the CVB...A little shopping...A Drive and some Naps...We finally make it to dinner time! Dinner at:
We showed up, personally I was expecting a restaurant building, and we came face to face with a house! Yes, a house...a nice house, but still...a house!
So there we sat, Emerson in the back seat, my wife and I looking at each other in the front seat, wondering..."Do you suppose they accommodate little kids? You want to go in and ask? No...Why don't you, I'll stay in the car with Emerson." And so on.
Well...Annie made her way in and came back with good news, they allow children, in fact, when we strolled in, the hostess took one look at our daughter and said, "They're (babies) especially welcome when they're that cute!" Looks like we were good to go!
So we sat down and took in our surroundings. Yep...The outside of the house didn't lie...it was a house inside too! You know...modified to accommodate a large number of dinner guests.
We sat next to a cute old couple out to dinner for one of their birthdays. It was one of those situations where you look at your spouse and silently say to one another..."That's going to be us someday." And it may very well be, because the food was delicious!
I ordered Fish & Chips, Annie ordered some Whitefish, and Emerson had Cheerios, Bread, Turkey w. Squash (in a jar of course), and a bottle of milk.
Now...much like our encounter at "The Roadhouse" in Benzie County, in which you can recall my thoughts by checking the previous post, there were some shouts and screams, maybe a little breakdown here and there, but all and all...We made it through. For all you Veteran parents out there, we know you you do these types of outings blindfolded, but we're still working on it.
Oh...and we arrived at the right time. When we got there, there was only a handful of people, when we left, the entire restaurant was packed full!
"The Grey Gables Inn Restaurant" is included in this week's giveaway, so if you're the winner, you'll no doubt be going to dinner here, however...If you don't win, but still make your way to Charlevoix...stop by. The atmosphere is fun, the food is delicious, and it's overall, just a nice pleasant experience. Not something you get too often these days.
After dinner we contemplated ice cream, but bowed out due to being extremely full. It's back to the hotel to play for a while, then bed time!
Tomorrow's post is going to be heavy on the photos since the last part of my family's recap of Charlevoix finishes up a "Castle Farms".
