December 16, 2014 Day 25 South for Winter
Marineland
MarinaPalm Coast, FL
Another
good cruising day – sunny, calm, warm, only one boat wake (and it knocked our Christmas
tree over). We saw many dolphins, white pelicans, and a deer swimming across
the ICW! We left Sisters Creek at 0800 to travel over 50 miles to Marineland
Marina in Palm Coast.
We
reached St. Augustine at 1:00. Bill contacted the Bridge of Lions bridge tender
for the current bridge clearance. With our antennas down we were able to pass
under without waiting for the next opening.
We
arrived at Marineland at 3:10 and went to the pump out dock before going to our
slip. We were tired from our long day and spent a quiet evening. We were glad
to have leftovers that made dinner much easier.
We
have two more days of traveling over fifty miles and look forward to staying put
for a while when we reach Cocoa Village on Thursday. We will go to an anchorage
near New Smyrna Beach tomorrow.
