November 22, 2007 - Ft. Pierce, FL


As we have travelled the next section of the ICW, we have seen a few boats that are aground. Many of them appear to be abandoned, then we see some like this one that appear to be tended.





















We had numerous porpoises swimming along the boat. They provided great entertainment. Many times we see what looks like a male, female and juvenile and they play in the wake of the boat together. The parents keep the juvenile away from the boat. They jump out of the water, swim upside down and jump over each other. They seem to be enjoying life!










In this section of the ICW in Florida we are seeing areas lined with very large and beautiful homes.













At our dock in Ft. Pierce, we had this pelican enjoying the bow pulpit on Monarch....



















and tonight, we appreciated a beautiful sunset.













We enjoyed a great Thanksgiving dinner tonight. We barbequed a turkey on the grill on the aft deck of the boat, adding stuffing, candied yams, mashed potatoes and gravy, and cranberry jello salad. The pumpkin chiffon pie will be the grand finale to a perfect day.
