St Augustine - at a dock

 

The Bridge of Lions at St Augustine, notice the empty slips in the foreground

It was another short day and the weather cooperated with temps in the low 80s. There were no shallows along the way so it was just enjoying the ride. The marina here has a very convenient dock for refueling and pump out which we took advantage of. 

A few of St Augustine from the docks, we'll explore tomorrow

The big news here is how empty the docks are. I've never seen St Augustine Marina with so few boats. I would estimate they are about 1/4 full. Usually, it's almost full and you have to be sure you have reservations in order to be guaranteed a slip. 

We will layover here for another day and then move on to the Bethune Park anchorage in Daytona for the night. Nobody is wearing a mask here, we are the only ones with the exception of other boaters. You'll see a few with masks dropped down around their neck, ready, I suppose for when they enter a store? We plan on a short walk tomorrow just to stretch our legs but we plan on avoiding all crowds.

How was the Pablo Creek area ... temp buoys still in place lining up with your route?
