Windy day. Up early for a phone visit with the wonderful, Judith Brown, and a phone visit with my wonderful sis-in-law, Sharyl Webster.
Early morning sun on the foreground boat which belongs to our boating buddy (BB), Fordyce with whom we'll cross to the Bahamas....tomorrow, if all goes according to plan and good weather window.
But notice the smoke stack of the BIG BOAT hiding in the bushes. (just beside the tall buildings)
L a r g e !!!!!
I counted 7 levels of port holes before getting to the top decks.
Okay, that was it for excitement for the day. We had breakfast, dinghy-ed into the Palm Beach Sailing Club to register for showers, etc, picked up the mail they'd held for us, agreed on plans for leaving tomorrow if weather holds, back to boat for tasks...the never ending tasks for getting ready to leave...wether on an over-night or 2 week vacation or in some cases just leaving the house to go to work.
We almost have the Bimini top ready to put up. We need it up so we can pull the outboard dingy motor on board...never mind the shade from the hot and intense tropical sun.
Tonight we heard from boating friends, Diane and Greg, who introduced us to John and Matt who will be in Lake Worth tomorrow and who may buddy with Fordyce and us tomorrow evening.
I still have to figure out telephone usage. ATT provides a daily plan for overseas communication and I hear there is wifi calling but haven't figured that out yet...all to figure how to not break our bank with expensive roaming or overseas (! imagine that...over seas!!) calls or data charges. Someone will know. I've inquired of Shannon who is, generally, my go to person regarding cyber/electronics.
It's all getting very exciting.
