Last quiet day
21 March 2020 | Naples Harbour

Yesterday we anchored in the Everglades Park. No phone, No Wifi - just a peaceful bay with birds chirping, and Manatee and dolphins swimming around the Eagle Heart. It was really easy to "turn off" for an evening. Now back to reality; kind of sad.
We are anchored at Naples today in a bay surrounded by Billionaires mansions. They probably invested in toilet paper and hand sanitizer last month. I am surprised we are allowed to anchor here. We are waiting for someone to come out and give us money to move on and stop spoiling their view!
The plan is to continue to Fort Myers tomorrow, and Labelle on Monday. There we shall be on the Okeechobee Canal, and at a hurricane proof marina that I have booked into. Never know how long before we can come back. I can pretty well assure you that travel will never be the same again.
Looking back at our wake today, turning the azure water white on a beautiful cruise, makes you realize how fortunate we have been on this boat trip. Now Marinas are closing in every state, the Florida Keys won't allow anyone in after midnight tonight, and is starting to eject campers, boaters, and closing all hotels and condos.
We have booked flights home this Saturday, so have a Very busy week ahead preparing for hurricane storage. Hopefully it will not come to pass.
Stay safe.
Air hugs to everyone!
