Feels like we’re Cruising Now


Two beautiful sunny days in Vero Beach – this is beginning to feel more like cruising and less like just surviving J.

We’re only one stop from our final Florida destination now, so yesterday was provisioning to get ready for crossing the Gulf Stream – probably early Monday morning (ie: 5:00 am).

Two nights ago night we stayed in a lovely anchorage near the marina – and last night we were at the marina dock. There’s a free bus into town each hour for trips to Publix (food store) and West Marine, so all very convenient.

Last evening we had a “sundowner” on our friends’ boat – 8 of us in their Jeanneau 45, with lots of room to spare in the cockpit. And we heard our first sunset conch-blowing of the season. This feels more like it!


Addendum – I just left the boat and it’s FREEZING outside again – a cold north wind and about 6 degrees celcius - sheesh!!
