Week 2 in Marathon.
On the 14th, our good friends Rod & Allison from Legacy Marina in Ft Meyers drove our truck down and stayed on the boat with us for two nights. With a vehicle we explored Marathon and went to the Crane Point Nature Preserve and other sights. We went to Sunsets for lunch and Barney's Tiki bar for dinner. Brigitte even got to fire a miniature cannon at sunset. The boom from a 10 gage shell scared the H out of us. On Wednesday we drove to Key West to the Border and Immigration office for an interview and obtain our frequent boater card. This will enable us to simply call in to clear customers when we get back into the US waters after the Bahamas. We had other Legacy friends, Tom & Doris ( pictured) meet us for lunch back at Faro Blanco.
Thursday we packed up the truck and drove 5 hours back to Ft. Myers and dropped Cody off at Happy Paws Doggy Ranch. After running a few errands, we had dinner with our friends the Hoffman's.
At 7:20 am Friday we flew back to MN for our Grand Daughter Sorens's first birthday party! We will spend as much time as possible with the kids before we fly back to Florida. We are leaving our truck at Legacy until the end of May and renting a car to get back to Marathon. The next post should have a lot more boating stuff.
Cheers Scott
