Day 184, February 10th, 2010
The weather forecast was not good at all. More wind for the next two days. Knowing that Marathon was very busy, with a 26 boat waiting list for moorings there and a busy anchorage, and that the water behind us was so shallow, we decided to stay put on the mooring buoys at Shell Key. It was a quiet day, snoozing off and on, reading, etc.
In the evening, John and I braved the dinghy and went over to Pea Soup for a great meal of pasta cabonara, with shrimp and lobster, followed by apply pie. Thanks Sharon! It was yummy. After a quick game of dice, we decided it was time to return. The wind had come up by then and we slopped back home to Periwinkle in the dark.
The second night wasn't quite so lumpy and again we held well.
