Short travel day to the Quad Cities (which consists of Moline and Rock Island, Illinois, as well as Bettendorf and Davenport, Iowa). We ended up staying at Isle of Capri Marina, in Bettendorf. It was part of a casino resort. The only place to gamble, however, was on a boat sitting in the Mississippi River, not on land (a little loop hole in Iowa's law).
Spent the day cleaning the boat, and grocery shopping to get ready for our next crew change. After all of our chores were done, we went out for a nice dinner to celebrate a great week with the Peltiers! When we were dropped off by the cab, we noticed next to the restaurant, John Deers' Corporate Showroom.
On to dinner at "Johnny's"!
Waiting for our main entrees, we decided to get a bottle of wine. With a few drinks in us, John and Dave decided to sample what was left in a bottle at the table next to us!!! They thought it was a FINE wine and we ordered a bottle, as well as finished the third that was left in the other bottle!
*Notice Johnny's "Elton John" look, as he and Dave sample the wine :)
After a wonderful meal, we could hear live music outside. We found a huge courtyard with a live band and many people dancing . . . we just had to join in on the fun! Not long after we started dancing, our new crew got into town :)
Johnny and Tony tear up the dance floor!
What a GREAT way to end a week with wonderful friends!
