| We couldn't figure out what this was in front of us, turned out to be a floating boat sales office under tow. |
 |
| Some of the homes we saw as we passed Miami, we kept expecting to see Horatio Caine investigting a murder in one of them. |
 |
We saw all kinds of boats today, including a pirate ship

| A huge container ship crossed the channel in front of us. |

Left the anchorage this morning, hated to leave; it was so beautiful in that harbour. Most of our trip today was past the city of Miami. Wow!!! Huge skyscrapers, all colours. Huge boats along the waterway and in the canals. We didn't know where to look first. Saw a huge ray jumping in the water again today, dolphins first thing this morning. A huge container ship pulled out and across the channel in front of us. Passed a floating office for Lazzara boats, pulled by a SeaTow boat. Today, we passed under 9 bridges, we had to have 2 of them opened for us. Arrived early afternoon. A very friendly man from Scott and Marlene's dock offered to drive us to the grocery store, so Scott, Marlene, Nancy and I went. Then another nice man from the marina picked us up with our groceries. The man who brought us back from the store is here on his sailboat. He is from Jersey, brought the boat down here last fall. He went home for Christmans, was hit from behind in his car, when he came back had issues with vertigo or dizziness, so he can't go out on his sailboat. He had planned to go to the Bahamas, but if his vertigo doesn't improve, he won't be able to. Got together with Scott and Marlene, Nancy and Eddie for a cooperative dinner tonight under the shelter at the marina office. Nice dinner with good company, and it is so nice to be able to sit out at night and be warm. We will stay here over the weekend, plan to tour Fort Lauderdale by Water Taxi tomorrow.
