Day 11: Things are Looking Up

Delaroche Creek, GA to mooring ball at Oasis Marina, Fernandina Beach, FL

It’s a gray day but there’s not a lot of wind and the water is smooth. We are on a mission to get a new water pump and the West Marine in Fernandina Beach has something that should work. It’s not the same one that we had but John made some adaptations. We have running water again!

Smooth water makes it easier to spot dolphin buddies. We were also on the lookout for the feral horses on Cumberland Island – and we actually saw one. There’s no doubt in my mind that my animal call is what brought it into our view. It works for dolphins, gators, and the bobcats at Charlestowne Landing, so…

Although we did not motor very far today, we did make it to Florida. After West Marine, we actually were able to shower and check out the oldest continuously operating tavern in Florida, The Palace. Just strolling feels like a treat after all of days on the boat.
