Daytona Beach today

We stayed in Titusville yesterday, we needed to do some grocery shopping.  Waited 1 hour for a taxi to go and come back, not very good service.  The people at the Municipal Marina were very nice and for 5$ you can take a shower even if you are anchored in the bay.

We also found out that 9,000 people will be losing their jobs after the next two shuttles...sad for this town.

Today Datona Beach and tomorrow St. Augustine where we will be spending a few days!

Bonjour de Cape Canaverale, FL


Bonjour à tous. Nous avons quitté Vero Beach lundi matin et nous avons pu faire de la voile jusqu'a notre ancrage à Eau Gallie, une belle journée. Rendu à l'ancre nous avons eu le plaisir de voir des dauphins, des lamantins et des oiseaux en profusion...quel plaisir! La vie sauvage à cette endroit est en abondance.

Aujourd'hui et demain nous restons à Cape Canaverale car demain après-midi il y a le départ de Discovery, nous ne voulons pas manquer ce départ, once in a life time experience. J'espère pouvoir prendre des photos.

Notre aventure continu, du moin encore pour quelque semaine...A+

Staying in Vero Beach

Hi everyone...We hadn't checked the hours on the motor so tomorrow, Sunday Feb. 20., oil change.  Leaving Monday for Indian Harbor Beach, we will be anchored near Mathers Bridge.

Having a great time at Vero City Marina!  Used their washer and dryers today, expensive but they do work well.  We went into town again today, as I said the bus service is free (do give a donation).

Only hick here is the NO SEE-UMS, plenty of them.  Flying teeth!  For future travellers, bring the spiral bug repellent...they work really well!  Also, netting is a must.

On our way to Vero Beach

Tomorrow, Feb. 16,  we will be on our way to Vero Beach Municipal Marina, we plan to spend a few days there, it seems it is a very nice place to stop.  Mooring balls are 13$ +tax and free buses to get around town.

The injector is fixed so all is good once again.
