Weather generally better than forecast so slightly overdressed though not complaining. Coffee and carbs at the courtyard accompanied by ducks again. They are remarkably unfazed by the dogs, not to mention humans.

Four ducks are walking along a paved area near outdoor chairs and tables. A tranquil lakeside view is framed by lush green foliage and vibrant purple flowering bushes under a canopy of trees. A serene woodland pond is surrounded by lush greenery and scattered with lily pads under a partly cloudy sky. A serene forest path is surrounded by lush green trees with sunlight filtering through the leaves.
