Talk about a change in the weather, it was 74F and there was no breeze when I got up. We headed to the shower and when we got back to the boat the temp was 62F and the wind was blowing 12 mph. Sheez!
We got away from the dock and headed back to the ICW. The plan for the day was ambiguous at best. We wanted to get as far as we can, but we also don’t want to push our safety if the weather goes sour. As usual the weather guessers get it wrong again. It was supposed to be warm with a chance of showers late in the day. What we got was cool and a deluge about 1100.
By the time we were nearing Daytona Beach, I had limited visibility and was running with navigation lights on. We decided to stop at Halifax Harbor and take the afternoon off.
We docked, secured the boat and then walked downtown to Stavro’s, a pizzeria we visited during our last trip. We enjoyed a pitcher of beer, salads, and a small pizza. Afterwards we walked the main drag, visited an antique mall and then went to CVS Pharmacy for a couple of items. On the way back to the boat we stopped at West Marine for some holding tank treatment. Extravagant shoppers aren’t we?
Sorry about no pictures lately. We haven’t had a wifi link lately and we’ve been using the air card. For some reason the air card connections seem to be slow and we can’t upload the picture files. Guess we’ll back fill the entries when we have a good wifi connection.
