We cast off the lines yesterday around 12:45 and headed for the Intracoastal Waterway back towards Naples.  We got to the Little Marco Anchorage about and hour later.  It reminds us of the St Clair flats, except for the palm trees.  You can only get here by boat.  Maybe we'll see a manatee today.

It was in the 50's when we left and headed into the North wind but as we made it up the waterway it warmed up considerably (but not enough for us to ride on a Jet Ski, no way) and we turned into the inlet between Keewadin and Little Marco Island.  It is beautiful quiet waterway and we found a nice wide area to anchor in. 

Today we may relaunch the dinghy, which we had to lift to get into the well on Wednesday, and do some exploring.  It is only a 2 minute ride to a beach where we can get over to the gulf beach and see what's up on this remote island.

  1. You sure are living the good life....I don't care which way the trees are blowing in your picture--as you said they are palm trees! Looking out my window I see snow covered pines with more snow on the way!

    Have a wonderful holiday with your family and enjoy a little time back in that beautiful kitchen where you can have stove and fridge at the same time!
