Charis' first foreign port of call
Last night was spent anchored on the edge of the Everglades across from Key Largo. The breezes were cool and the bugs stayed in hibernation. With no lights around one could reach out and touch the stars.
Charis approaches Miami after a delightful run up the Bay of Biscayne in light northerly breezes. The compass saw true North for the first time today finally headed to where we are going. We spent the afternoon visiting with a delightful Trawler internet list friend sharing boat and travel stories. Tomorrow we will borrow his truck and replenish heavy supplies such as soft drinks, propane and canned things. Mean while we are anchored in a beautiful lake like area 50 yards from our friends home and about 1/4mile from where the cruise ships dock on Government Cut.
They tell us there will be a fireworks display after dark near where we are anchored. All in all a splendid couple of days.
