Day 26 Jan 12, 2017 Thursday

City Anchorage      West Palm Beach, FL  

Today we took the dinghy off the swim platform and to shore.  We caught the trolley nearby and made a quick trip to the grocery store.  We returned to the boat and lounged around in the sun.  It was upper 70s sunny and a lovely day to hang out.  No biting bugs of any kind.  
Later in the day we went back to shore and ate at a restaurant  called Grease.  No kidding.  They had lots of unhealthy food.  I had the standard hamburger but it was so big I could hardly get my mouth open big enough to bite it.  We both had milk shakes, real ones not that soft serve junk.  Then Lee also ordered a beer.  Milkshake and beer ??!!  To each his own.  We left full.  They had 6 layer carrot cake but I was too full to consider it. 
 We returned to the boat after dark.  We are anchored just out from the city centennial park where they were setting up to start a concert as we passed through to the dinghy dock.  The fountains were on and lit up in multicolor light and it looked really pretty.  
Tomorrow we hope to get to the Manatee Discovery Center.  It is free but off the free trolley route and a VERY long walk . We may break down and do Uber.  If you have never seen a manatee up close they are really cute. They have toenails on their flippers and the most expressive human looking eyes.
