At Marco Island April 16-17


We motorsailed for 6 hours along the coast gazing at blue green water, occasional dolphins and gorgeous coastline until we entered the harbor into Marco Island. We were greeted by JB and Mickey Walton, the uncle and aunt of my sister-in-law, Nita. They let us use their dock and invited us to a yummy Texas dinner of chili, rice, salad and ice-cream for dessert. They were so hospitable to us - what a wonderful time!

Tomorrow we have a long sail along a more remote coast of Florida called the 10,000 Island Area. We hope to anchor at Little Shark River overnight and then proceed to Marathon in the Keys.
