Turned around and headed north

We awoke this morning to a still, quiet mooring field.


Still enough, in fact, that we and several other northward bound boats left their moorings.  Here is part of the fleet, heading out of the inlet channel.  One fishing boat is coming in - after diesel and water and bait, we expect.


It wasn't the best 8 hour cruise we've ever had - no sailing and a bit on the rolly side of boating, but it wasn't bad and we are finally starting the return trip back for the summer and fall months.

Tonight we are again anchored in Rodriguez Key, but this time there are 9 other boats anchored with us, all either heading northward in the quiet waters tomorrow or heading eastward to Bimini tomorrow.  We met another couple with an identical boat to Latitudes, anchored beside us.  Very interesting to talk to them.

One last Keys sunset - a bit cloudy but a nice sunset all the same.


From the looks of the weather forecast, tomorrow we will be motoring again for about 8 hours, arriving in either Miami or Key Biscayne in the afternoon.
