| This guy came into the dock this afternoon. I wonder if he goes out into the ocean? |
Lots of housekeeping today to get ready for our final leg to Key West. They have good laundry service here so we took advantage of that. No matter how high the wind blows in the Keys, it’s protected where we’re at but it’s time to move on.
I returned the car to Enterprise which on Sunday involves a hike from the Enterprise office down the road back to the marina, about a mile or a little less. We celebrated our last day in Key Largo with another diner at Skipper’s Dockside, a place we’ve come to enjoy. The food is good and reasonably priced, less expensive than some of the other nearby restaurants which is somewhat surprising since it’s attached to the Marina Del Mar resort.

The dockhand said that they’ve seen crocodiles at times in the canal by the marina. They can exist in salt water (that’s where “crocodiles tears” come from, they are getting rid of the salt in their diet) where alligators cannot. They been known to catch pelicans off docks.
We plan on leaving early, it’s a 50 mile sail to Marathon and we’re hoping for mild weather. It’s really been windy the last four days!
