Weather was much improved today, cold but very little wind, so it seemed much warmer. Still awoke to a frozen dock and the marina had a busted water lline this morning but it did not effect our pier.
We took off again this morning about 10:30am headed out for Fort Pulaski. We stopped at Papa Johns pizza just down from the marina and ordered a pizza to be delivered to the guys and girl at the marina for lunch!! They appreciated the surprise!!! We appreciate having a car for 3 days!!! FREE!!!!
It is only about 10 miles to the Fort and it was a beautiful ride and again we saw things we had not seen before. A great adventure!!
Fort Pulaski is HUGH!! The biggest Fort we have seen yet!!! I took MANY pics so I will post a few to share. A sunny day but my thermals, snow boots, gloves and earmuffs felt good all day! Although it is a BIG ordeal to go to the bathroom!!! Ha
It was a self guided tour through the fort. The most impressive is its size. The center courtyard you could put 4 baseball fields.
We stayed for an exhibition at 1pm by a man demonstrating the use of the firearms. He was extremely knowledgable and even shot the gun for us 3 times.
Very enjoyable day!!!
On the way back to the marina we stopped at BiLO for a few needed groceries to get us home. We decided to leave tomorrow and anchor out the next 3 nights and get on home. There is plenty to do before starting tours March 4th!! 149 school kids from 1-4pm. We should be home by Monday evening!!!
I ask for prayer for our safe travels!!!
Much love to all!!! Fran and Capn Rod
How many cannons can a person see in 3 day? Hehe
