John stands at the helm. In front are our wonderful solar cells. With the electricity from those cells and the wind generator, we never need to hook up to shore power.
Just as they do at home, the cormorants hang out on the ICW markers planning their next dive for fish.
John remembered a really great bar and grill off the waterway that he visited 13 or 14 years ago when he was sailing his first boat. We anchored in the shallows just off the ICW, but there was no bar and grill in sight when we stopped around noon to have lunch. We locked up the Caribbean Soul and took off down a little alleyway of water--still could not see any thing except some fishermen on the shore. But in a few minutes, the quaint little seafood place appeared--Alabama Jacks! It was built out over the water and I was amazed it was still standing. Here I am enjoying an Alabama Jacks topical drink--ahhhhhh!
Here's the inside of Alabama Jacks.
And you can get there via the highway too! Let us know if you need directions.
Another view of inside.
John enjoying and remembering this old classic water side bar.
A wonderful rain shower happened while we were having lunch, so the dinghy and the big boat got all their crusty salt deposits washed off--nice! After lunch we got back to Caribbean Soul, pulled up the anchor and headed to Key Largo.
Ya know you're in the keys when the water starts looking like this.
