Key Biscayne


Here we are in Key Biscayne. Not a bad spot to hang out. The moorings are cheap and the sports fishermen keep us well supplied with Swordfish, Mahi Mahi and Cobia. We are hoping for some Lobster but no luck so far.



There are also some great beaches near by so we are planning to take a swim on our day off...Sunday. We seem to never run out of jobs to do. There is always something to do on Fine Line or the dinghy.


We have located some fine eateries when we are out and about. Pizza is always good but we are finding lots of good things to eat at the local Cuban Restaurant. It is very convenient because you can also get your laundry done at the same place. What a concept!



We are keeping our fingers crossed for a weather window on Tuesday so we can cross to
Bimini. It is imperative that we leave the US fairly soon because we are spending way too much money on boat stuff. The Miami Boat Show was amazing and had way too many "boat gadgets " that the captain could not live without. Not only is it a drain on the bank account, we can hardly see the water line on the boat anymore!



Life on board continues to delight us. We are not coming back any time soon.



Adios,



Captain Clean and Anne

It was great to talk to you and know that you are finally again on your way. We are getting a little rain now and you know how badly we need it. The warm water lobster you get down there are ok but not as good as your nothern cold water ones. The fish will be the very best. See if you can get some wahoo. It's top of the line. Smooth sailing and I realy envy you both.

LOVE dad

Gee thanks all of you.....please try to remember that the captain and first mate's kids read this!! Hearing about dad with no underwear and seeing pictures where he appears to be naked is bad enough, throw your commets in there and it is enough to make us sick!! Ha ha

Sunny said...

I would like to apologize to my nieces about making fun of their dad's dinghy. Besides, it appears that he needs to pump air into his dinghy to make it work and that is just not a laughing matter!

Hey... modern medicine has a remedy in the form of a little blue "pump" for us old guys... sorry Megan!

Travelin' Maymay said...

Wow this is just getting way out of control!! I never thought I would here this much information about my dad's dinghy from so many people!! ha ha

Fine Line said...

Hey all, to end all of this dinghy talk I have assigned dinghy care to the first mate. Any further comments should be directed to Anne. Thanks The Captain

Hello Neighbors!
It looks like you are still having a fabulous time! I've recently seen your girls, and they are doing well. The house is in order, Meghan has done some yardwork and all nightly wild parties seem to end by 2:00am, a reasonable time. :)
Meghan, as far as all that
dinghy talk, I found this in the blogger rules: By their very nature, Blogger.com and Blogspot.com may carry offensive, harmful, inaccurate or otherwise inappropriate material,.... We expect that you will use caution and common sense and exercise proper judgment when using Blogger.com. ;) Hope that helps! I accidently went to the next blog on this site and it was MUCH worse.
....All is well in the neighborhood! The remodeled home on your side of the street has been sold...
Good Voyage to you!
Cheers!
Kelly
