We left Florida today for the coastal waters of Georgia. It was a dark, cold, nasty day which seemed to fit the area we sailed into. I have included photos of homes, marinas, and the water of both Florida and Georgia in this blog. My mind is made up as to which coastal area I would prefer to spend my vacation, but to each his own. Maybe viewing these pictures will help you decide.
We travelled 100 miles today. Our plan was to travel 80 but the Captain marked the chart incorrectly and we sailed past our Marina and had to find a different home for the night. What we found was "Half Moon Marina" situated 6 miles off the ICW in a river with no channel markers, alligators, snakes, and god only knows what else.
The highlight of our day was seeing some wild horses.

Ominous sky to start the day.

This was the best weather of the day.

Typical Florida home on the ICW.

One of the nicer homes on the Georgia ICW.

Pretty much an average Florida Marina.

Florida waters (about 15 feet deep).

Georgia waters (not sure of depth, the sounder couldn't read through the water to the bottom).
Florida or Georgia, boy it's really a toss up.
