Merry Christmas


Some of the folks get a little carried away, otherwise you would not know it was Christmas in 70 degree weather.


After opening 19 bridges in two days from West Palm Beach to Ft. Lauderdale, we arrived.  We spent a very pleasant night on anchor in Boca Raton, before Ft Lauderdale.  We then proceeded up the New River where we tied off to spend Christmas.  Great selection of restaurants and sights for the holidays.
Notice the Tow Boat Ahead of this Behemoth 
New rule; if you are too big to navigate the river on your own and require two tugs (one in the front and one in the back), your boat is too big!  Evidently, the New River is one of the places you go to see and be seen.  The parade of boats on "the cruise" is quite entertaining.
Dog Park
 Our slip is surrounded by numerous high-rise apartment building.  The green space near our boat is the favorite dog walking area.  With about 3 foot of tidal action, we sometimes look out of the boat and are on eye level with a dachshund doing their business.  We have met some great dogs and owners.
