12/22/16 Thursday

We pulled up anchor this morning around 6:45am and was headed south again by 6:50am!!
We had a great travel day with a light wind that pushed us most of the day. All the windows were open and we still roasted all day!! A few times the temperature on the bridge where we drive was 90 degrees!! We had more dolphins swimming with us today than any day we have had yet this trip! Sure kept Lexie occupied all day!, lol
We traveled 83 miles today and decided to dock at the city docks in Palm beach. We thought maybe we would not be able to as all the reports we had gotten the last few days were part of the waterway was closed to boats as the Trumps arrived here in Palm beach today to spend Christmas. But there was no issues and all seemed to be fairly normal here. A company called Sandyland is here in Palm beach creating several fabulous Sand structures. There is a 40 ft Christmas tree and many other scenes of Christmas movie characters. I'll post some pics. We walked for a while through town and chose a Chinese restaurant, Chopsticks, for,some supper. It was fabulous! It havent had Chinese in a while so it was a real treat.
They had a big band in the park playing the oldies from the big band era! Crowds of people. We could hear it from the boat so most of it we just sat on the back deck and listened!
Looks like we are going to battle high winds for the next few days and really concerned with having to cross Biscayne Bay to get to the keys. So plans may change. Please pray for our travels and that we make the right decisions.
3 more days till Christmas!!!!!🎄
