Below: Karen Duquette asked the owner of the car shown below if she could take pictures and he said yes. He explained that it is a gold overlay on the car, not gold paint. As expected, the car was getting a lot of attention.

Below: The two RV Gypsies walked a short distance to Hidden Harbor to watch the sunset.

Below: The two RV Gypsies relaxed on the outdoor patio of a restaurant to watch the sunset.

Below: Naturally, Karen Duquette decided to enjoy a Rum Runner.

Below; The two RV Gypsies returned to the Bicentennial Tower on June 11 for some night time photos - Below - Sunset starting at 8:34 p.m. to 8:36 p.m. Then the sun went behind clouds and the sky got lighter.

Below: Karen Duquette took a picture of the sunset with her camera and when she looked at the image on her camera, she was shocked to see a small, bright orange hand. So she used the camera's zoom function to make a close-up photo of the hand. Guess there will always be mysterious happenings in this world. This is a real photo, not touched up in any way.
