It was another early morning as we wanted to put more miles under the keel. The night was restful as the wind protection was good.

We weighed anchor shortly after 0700. We had a good day although didn't cover as many miles as yesterday. The winds and waves were not as favourable although by no means against us. We had more bridges to pass under or should I say wait to open although we were very fortunate that our timing of the bridges was good. Shear mistake on our part! We got held up at a bridge at 1530, just missed it by 15 minutes. Unfortunately it only opens once hourly so the next opening was at 1615, making getting to our preferred anchorage later than we would have liked. We opted to back track a mile or so and catch that bridge first thing tomorrow morning.

We set anchor at 1600, once more seeking protection from the winds that are supposed to be 15 to 20 kts tonight. We are anchored in Lake Worth, with Palm Beach and all its mega yachts surrounding us!

I love the name!

So this is how the 1% live.

There is a lot of  1% down here.

Love the colours.

This is what I call a true houseboat! (It is actually on a barge being transported somewhere.)

From one extreme to . . .

another.
 
We called Gilbert and Diana. They are still in Fort Lauderdale. Hopefully we will catch up to them tomorrow as we are  planning on arriving in Fort Lauderdale tomorrow and they are planning on staying put.
