We've Come Full Circle

Or perhaps I should say, "We've come full Figure of Eight"
We left Key West on Tuesday and made a day hop to Marathon where we anchored off of Boot Key for the evening. We got up at first light and by 7:00 we were underway to Lake Worth. We took the "Hawk Channel" all the way to Miami which offered some protection from the seas. Once off of Miami we were back in Atlantic waters. All in all it was not that bad. A little bumpy, but hey, at one point we were under sail and making a record 10.2 kts.
Wahoo!!!
We've now set the anchor in North Palm Beach/Lake Worth where we'll hang out for a few days, or rather Andrew will hang out for a few days while I head to Boston for an interview (another lower case wahoo!).
Our arrival here marks the culmination of our circuit of the Western Caribbean. Lake Worth was our jumping off site for the passage to the Bahamas. We started the international portion of our travel from here and we've now closed the loop. If you're not familiar with our position tracking, on the right side click on "Where Are We Now."
Now for a very late breakfast and some rest.
