February 8, 2024 - West Palm Beach, Florida to Boca Raton, Florida

 Thursday

I awoke this morning to a loud thump and Kip jumping out of bed in his skivvies to see who was climbing onto our boat.  It turned out it was a wave.


We left the dock around 7:30 heading toward Boca Raton.  We had to call for a lift on the George Bush Boulevard Bridge because it only allowed for 9' of clearance and we are a tad over 13'.  Kip spotted a large lizard resting on the bridge!




We stopped at the Palm Beach Marina for a pump out (they charge $20 for pump outs), gas for the dinghy, and water.  As we continued, a few miles later, they offered pump outs for free.  Oh well!

We are anchored at Lake Boca Raton with a number of other boats (many of them very big)!  




We spent the afternoon reading and had hotdogs, vegetables, fruit, and cookies for supper.  I think some of the people around here forgot the contents of the memo that states:  Not everyone wants to listen to your music!  

The winds died down, so we should have a peaceful evening.
