January 24,25
We left the anchorage by 9:00, and traveled under quite few more bridges, crossed the Port of Miami entrance, where once again there were a number of cruise ships.
We then traveled through the city of Miami and out to Biscayne Bay.
We entered the channel to Bayshore Marina from the bay and saw over 150 sailboats participating in an International regatta. They were everywhere including the channel we were in, Andy avoided them as best he could.
We arrived at our slip and tied up by about 12:15. Later in the afternoon we walked to a nearby grocery store.
Today, the technician came and was able to fix the head, and I did some cleaning. In the afternoon we walked to Coco Walk; a nearby district that has shops and restaurants.
For tomorrow, we have rented a car for the day, so we can go pick up Andy’s sister Elaine at Miami airport—the next visiting crew! We also plan to do some banking and grocery shopping. The internet at this marina; doesn’t work well so not a lot of pictures being added.
We will assess the weather on Wednesday morning and make a decision if we’re going to the Bahamas or the Keys or ?? ( it won’t be crossing the gulf to Carabelle!!) for the next 3 weeks while Elaine is here.
