St Augustine Municipal Marina ICW 777.7

We had a visitor. Every once in a while a bird decides to "rest" on Ariel. Maybe you can figure out what kind of bird it is?

As we left St Augustine MM we were in a hurry. Charles just found out at 8:15 am that the tide was about to change so we dashed out of there. I had started breakfast and had cracked open eggs, and dishes everywhere but they got the "safe keeping" treatment so we could throw off our dock lines and leave. The current helped us out quite a bit. We were doing 7.5 knots some of the time. We landed at the Inlet Harbor Marina which is a restaurant complex at ICW 843. We covered a lot of ground today.

We will be going outside tomorrow. Wish us luck. Rocky or not .. here we come.

The bridge in Dayton Beach area has wonderful mosaics of manatee and dolphins. We see many dolphins in our travels.
