Daytona Beach

Well just a bit south of Daytona to be exact. This is a cute place (Adventure Yacht Harbour) we can hear the waves crashing on the beach, went there earlier for a swim, Jeff made sure I didn't get swept out to sea.

Is that Charlie Sheen? He can't see me but I'm out there in the surf.

Its been a great day, early start at 7:00 am and right away an exciting bird sighting, Jeff will confirm it. I was looking at a group of Wood Ibis and there in the middle was a blob of pink. No not a Flamingo a Spoonbill!


Then shortly after a Linx (Bobcat) - I could hardly believe it myself but there it was, a large cat with a short tail and sideburns picking its way along the shore of the ICW.


Flipper stopped by again too and guess who was at the helm - right first time, so again no video and after all the trouble we went to to get tape.

So here I sit at the top of the companion way stairs with the hatch half closed and the laptop perched on top of it and why you may ask - well so I can get WiFi of course. I just put my Renrod fleese on, I only have shorts and a 'T' Shirt on and it still cools down of an evening.

What a great day, good progress exciting sightings and a nice salad to finish it off, well that and a sunset to die for. Here too are more pictures of our day.

End of a great day!

Great endings usually start with great beginings, leaving St Augustine.

This ones for sale. One of many.

All fixed bridges are 65' thank goodness.

Beautiful boat, lovely lines!

Captain has retired, another early start (will hate to leave this place) and so to bed, Cape Canaveral  tomorrow or as Buzz would say "to infinity and beyond".
