We had a really nice anchorage at Cocoa Village and got up early to roll—we had 50 miles to go with a few bridges –one is 7ft high! After a surprise Skype with the Grandbabies and their Moma and a call from Nick we settled back for a nice relaxing cruise up the ICW knowing all was well back home. Overhaul Canal near Cape Canaveral was especially busy –but we know busy and it didn’t match Ft. Myers on a Sat. morning. Cape Canaveral seemed really empty—I guess it has been hit hard with gov. cutbacks. All the locals were out and the wind (even though promised to be relatively calm) really kicked up. A saving grace was that we had a strong current going our way so we still made good time and pulled into New Smyrna Beach Municipal Dock around 3pm. We decided to pull into a marina so we could watch the NASCAR race tonight. There are so few Saturday night races that we thought this might be fun. Next door to us is the UT catamaran and behind us is a playground for Dolphin.
