| Not all anchorages are senic |
It was a quiet day, we spent the morning “cruise planning”
where we spread out charts, books, lists and computers and decide where to go
next – for the next few weeks. We have
some great territory in front of us and some definite dates that we had to fit into
the program. Then we turned out onto the
ICW and continued north in a straight line for some hours. As we leave Florida, I believe the straight
lines will become S-curves and loops and the route will require more
attention.
As we docked this afternoon at the Titusville Municipal
Marina, I saw first a circular disturbance in the water, then some water flow. I questioned if there was a current in the marina, but that seemed unlikely. Then it became apparent that a manatee needed to move out of our slip so we could move in. It’s a good place, very
practical and well kept. No fancy
flowerbeds but some really nice people and a van that will take you anywhere in
town and come back to pick you up. Carol
went to Walgreens and got the short tour.
Titusville is not a Florida tourist town or a sunbird retirement
community – just a regular working town with many businesses and across the
causeway is the whole Kennedy Space Center as a major employer.

| Our first glimpse of NASA |
People from a couple of other boats invited us over for
cocktails and so we met some folks who are also headed to Fernandina Beach for
the MTOA Rendezvous. The Rendezvous is
April 15-18 and so we are working that into our plans.
