Key Largo - Super calm ride

 

The prediction was for the winds to start late in the day - so - early morning departure!

It’s the calm before the storm for today’s run from Marathon to Key Largo. The seas were flat but the high winds are coming. It looks like we’ll be here until Friday but then the forecast can always change so we don’t really know. 

After our first substantive rain shown in three months in the Key - a rainbow!

We are once again at Marina Del Mar which is completely protected from high winds in all directions. We have a side-to dock so it’s easy on and off for Ann and Hoolie. The resort here features a complementary breakfast which we’ll partake of as we wait for better weather. 

Snug at a side-to dock, easy on and off

Unfortunately, our extended stay here throws all our plans in disarray for stops on the way north - an effort in rearrangement that will begin Monday. Once we get inside on the way to Miami, we’ll have more control on when to travel or not but in the ocean, we like calm weather.
