WEEKEND REFLECTION - View while having lunch at The Sloop, I.O.W.

I had decided to have lunch at The Sloop and these were the scenes I was looking out on to.  How beautiful is that for a view at lunchtime in January! 










I hope you enjoyed seeing the sun, blue water and sky giving these beautiful reflections in the water.

I am linking this post with WEEKEND REFLECTIONS.

Many thanks for your visiting and also to those who leave comments.

    I think that water makes every view better - and this is a beauty.

    There is just something wonderful about dining ... Or lunching -- with a view of the water. And the sun and reflections and beautiful boats, definitely my kind of place!

    Really, really nice group of photos. Loved seeing the mix of colors.
    Beautiful mix of reds, blues, yellows and whites . . . I could feel the crisp January air too.
    Nice lunch view for sure!

    Beautiful reflections, Margaret. Just this minute, Rina saw a reflection of Shadow in the window behind me. We're in the entertainment lounge) Shadow is sitting in MY bedroom window which is at right angles to this room. I hope my photos look as good as the real deal. Thanks for the advice re regular invites of meals etc. We had a house-warming for MIL today and told her we're not having dinner this weekend. So we'll see her some time next week. She was quite happy! I also thought about when Eryn will be exactly double Bethany's age again. I'll get Bethany (the younger, but SO bright, to work it out) My mum was 26 when I was born; when I was 26, I had my second son, Angus. My mum was then 52. When Angus was 26, I was, you guessed it... (LOL) Hope you have a great weekend. Jo xx

    I'm sure it was fun to have lunch by the water and boats, the reflections are really great the way they made such colorful streaks, lots of reds.
