Days 11,12,13 of our voyage "Headed to the Keys" 12/20,21,22/12

It is 7:15 pm on Dec 22 !!! it's almost Christmas!! We have been docked at Titusville Marine in Titusville Fla for the past 4 days waiting on parts to repair our water pump on one of the motors. The mechanic went ahead and refurbished the other motors pump as we knew it would not be far behind in failing also!! But today around 1:30pm we untied our home hugged, kissed and wished a Merry Christmas to our friends Jim and Paula and again we were headed south on our way to the keys!! We had a great time the last few days sight seeing and also was able to do some cleaning and and maintenance that is always needed!! We both were so excited to get out and going again felt great to be floating and headed south!!! We have had some cold weather and the wind died down some this afternoon!! We are anchored out in a bay not too far from Melbourne, Fla. Lexie has been for her dinghy ride over to the grass and supper cooked and dishes done!!! Yea!!! time to sit back and relax a bit and finish the book I started yesterday!!! Since we left late we only got in about 30 miles in today, but that does put us a little farther south!! Love to all, Fran
I have attached a few pics first is Cape Canaveral, and some of the Manatee!! I have some great pictures of the many Manatee at the marine they were always there, always waiting on a drink of fresh water. I can't seem to get a good pic with the phone or the iPad. Can't wait to show the kids!! Got some of Pawpaw rubbing their bellies!!! Toooo cool
