We left this morning around 9:30. Not so early!!! We have a fairly short ride of about 4 hours today to Melbourne FL. The water is perfect and hardly any boats out here!!! We made it with no troubles to Eau Gallic Yacht Basin. It’s a rustic little marina but we like staying there because it’s in a beautiful little cove. We got there in time for Richard to do a boat wash. We had a dinner of pork chops and veggies. Off to bed!!!!

We left early this morning at 7:00am!!! We are going to New Smyrna Beach. We had a nice surprise near Cape Canaveral during our trip. We heard a strange loud roar overhead and it turned out to be the SpaceX rocket launch. We couldn’t see the rocket but did get pictures of the contrail. We docked in at 3:30. Kinda of a long day!!! We had sausage for dinner. And I was soon off to bed!!! Another awesome day on the water!!!!

Day 267 – June 20th 2022
This morning we slept in a little because today is a short day. We left Palm Coast around 11:15 and headed to St. Augustine. We got to our marina, Rivers Edge around 3:00 pm. It’s another rustic stop, but the folks are always friendly. We met a nice couple from Longview TX on the stop. We fly the Texas State flag and it always draws in other Texans on the water. For dinner we went to a restaurant at the marina. Another great day!!!

This morning I got to sleep in while Richard did some boat chores!!! Yeah for me!!! I got dressed and we decided to go walk around the little town. It is filled with all kinds of quaint, cute shops!!! We enjoyed walking in and out of all the shops. We stopped for ice cream that was delicious!!!! We made our way back to the boat after a few hours. A very relaxing way to spend the afternoon!!! For dinner Richard made a delicious Christmas chicken casserole!!! It was yummy!!! We watched the movie Midway and it was so good !!! After that it was off to bed.

It was a nice ride!!! We went up to the swimming pool for a while. It was so cold and refreshing. We went to the restaurant for dinner and it was a hopping place!!!! We had a good meal and saw someone we knew!!! We saw Sheila, Mike Enfingers wife!!! It’s a small world!!! Back to the boat and off to bed!!!
