2/25/2011 NEW RIVER, FORT LAUDERDALE

FRIDAY

TOTAL MILES TRAVELED TODAY: 0 NM

We waved to “Q’s End” and “Finally” as they made their way out of the New River. Wish we were trailing along with them on their journey to the Bahamas!


Q'S END HEADING OUT

JILL AND RICHARD ON FINALLY WAVING

More bike riding was in store today as we explored our new neighborhood. We found the hardware store and a fabulous marine book store, Blue Water Books and Charts. Walking the other direction we strolled down Las Olas Blvd. and found tons of trendy restaurants and cute shops. We were drawn into a new yogurt shop where you fill your own cup with your flavor choice, add the toppings and pay according to the weight. That would be the weight of the yogurt and not the added weight gain from eating it.

Here we go with another “small boating world” incident. This evening we had a knock at the helm door and found Jim and his wife Pat that we had rafted against at Bobby’s Fish Camp in Bladon Springs, AL. At that time Jim was relocating the Andiamo from her summer home in Chicago to her winter residence in Fort Lauderdale. Tonight he and Pat were going home from dinner when Jim saw Quest and couldn’t believe it. We got them to come aboard and had an enjoyable evening talking of trips and “boating” stuff.
