Rocking and rolling

Our mooring in the Biscayne Bay is due west of the Atlantic, with nothing to protect us from westerly winds.  Guess which direction the wind is blowing from... We are rocking and rolling.  Not pleasant.  If it looks like we won't be crossing to Bimini on Monday, we will almost certainly change marinas tomorrow to get out of the swells. The seasick feeling hasn't completely gone away.  This doesn't help..Ugh.
Fortunately, we left Latitudes before the winds really picked up this morning.  Took the launch in, supported the economy a little too much, and had a 3-tacos-for-$10 lunch.  I actually had a great shopping trip.  My boat sandals were a little too slick on the bottom - no grip left - and that's not good on a boat.  I found the last pair of non-skid boat sandals, in my size, at a local store for a whopping 75% discount!  And...a wonderful pair of Crocs jelly shoes!  See, old women can again wear little girls shoes! LOL  I love 'em!
