Having north winds, we have sailed down to Key Largo where we will wait for the wind to shift to the south so that we can cross the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas. In the meantime, Phillip and Doug have been diligently doing home school to get ahead so that when Andrew comes they can take a break. While we were in Miami, Matthew Pellar, a long time friend of Mike’s, met us out on the Adamo with his friends. We had a great time hanging out, relaxing, and enjoying Sunday afternoon.
The sail to Key Largo took two days. The conditions were perfect with following winds, no waves due to the shallow depth of Biscayne Bay, and plenty of sunshine with cool temperatures. The water cleared up well enough for Phil to see the bottom through the glass floor in the hull, our “window to the sea”. He saw several large lobsters, but since we were in a national park, all he could do was look. Man . . . he really wanted us to stop and catch them, and eat them! Maybe next week.

We were lucky today. When we motored to shore, we were in the center of Key Largo where everything is located! We docked up the dingy at Snook's Restaurant and will have lunch there when we return. We are at a local's Cafe..internet and all! It is very quaint!
