Anchored off Tavernier Key. FL
The wind finally died down in the middle of the night. This morning we got up and filled our water tank, disposed of our trash and headed south. Glad to be out of the marina. We did not go far. Only a few miles to an anchorage on the FL bay side near Tavernier Creek. It is mostly 8-10 foot deep and has quite a few crab pots.
It has water the color of the gem stone aqua marine. I had never really thought of it before but that is a perfect description of the stone. Color of sea water. In the Bahamas the water is more the color of blue topaz, more turquoise. The bottom is grass and sand and a bit murky right now because of the high winds recently. For the next several days the day time temps are 70s and night time 60s. Which is really nice when we are on the hook because we do not have AC if we do not have shore power,
It finally feels like we made it. We are in beautiful water, anchored off islands, soaking up sun and relaxing. We will enjoy this time until we can cross to the Bahamas, where it only gets even better.
