Our New Neighborhood

Yesterday we had a lovely sail with the Code Zero the final 12 miles to Fort Myers Beach. We arrived in the mooring field to be greeted by old friends - Pam & Frank on "Blackfoot", Dave on "Destiny", and Ed & Betsy on "Haven". We were immediately impressed by our surroundings. The mooring field is very roomy, and there are shrimp boats, restaurants, pretty houses, and palm trees. Pam graciously offered to drive us to the airport to pick up Jamie at 11:00pm. We stayed up far beyond "cruisers midnight" (9:00pm)! Today we began to explore Fort Myers - this is a great place! The facilities at the mooring field are the best - very nice showers & laundry, convenient pump out at the boat, and a close dinghy dock. The beach was spectacular - the softest sand I think I have ever walked on; Jamie even went for a swim. Today is also Jim's Birthday. We celebrated by going to the Beach Grill for dinner with Jamie, Dave, Pam & Frank. Today was definitely a "10"!
