We entered Charlotte Harbor two days ago, anchored neared the entrance from the Gulf for the first night, then went to the Burnt Store Marina and took a slip for a night and showered, did laundry, had a very good restaurant dinner and very bad entertainment (local karoke). Today had a nice sail up Charlotte Harbor (in three tacks), and are now anchored off Fisherman's Village in Punta Gorda. Tomorrow we go back down the harbor (I'd call it a good size bay), and continue on to St. Pete. But, now it's cocktail hour, and then Pen is whipping up a fresh shrimp dinner!
