A quick catch up tonight.  We kept the rental car Tuesday morning in Jacksonville and ran some more errands. Joyce also had a doctor’s appointment.  We went out for lunch, returned the car and then spent the rest of the day and evening on the boat.

We delayed our departure until after 9:00 this morning to wait for the tide to come back in.  We had another good cruising day of over 56 miles to Palm Coast.  We passed St. Augustine at 1:00 when we went through the opening of the Bridge of Lions.  We arrived at Palm Coast at 3:40 and stopped at the fuel dock first to empty the holding tank.  Then we docked on the face dock.  Dinner was the pork tenderloin that we had cooking all day in the crock pot. It is always nice to have a meal ready!

We will continue south in the morning with New Smyrna Beach as our goal!
