Miami
21 January 2013 | Venetician Causeway
We left Ft. Lauderdale at 7:00 am to head to Miami on the outside. Yesterday the ocean was a little rough but today it was calm. We put up the sail while we were going out the inlet. As usual, I was still sleepy. Tom told me to go below and take a name. He didn't have to tell me twice. I fell asleep and did not wake yp for 2 1/2 hours later--just as we were getting to Governments Cut at Miami. The wind, waves and the sails gave us a fast ride. At noon we were eating lunch at the Venetician Causeway.
Day 2 at Miami: We went to shore in time for me to get a pixie haircut before lunch. It is the longer version of the pixie. Tom likes it!!!! Then we walked for a long ways to our Tia restaurant on Washington Drive. Great food as usual!!!! Then we walked back to Lincoln Mall--stopped at McDonald's for ice cream. We people watched at the mall and then walked to our dinghy boat. We wen t up Collins Canal to go to Publix. They have put in a new wall on the street side. They also built a dinghy dock for the boaters to tie their dinghies to. Real nice!! Back to the boat for a relaxing afternoon. We are trying to figure out what we want to do. The weather controls out itinery.
