The big trip 2016 (part 9)

Essentially just elaborating on the last post but the weather crept up on us quicker than expected. Sunday morning we decided there was no way we were going out in the washing machine conditions out in the gulf. After combing through our crusing guide and phone apps we settled on Snook Bight Yacht Club & Marina on Fort Myers Beach.

Today is now Tuesday and we couldn't be happier with our choice of marinas.  The staff is courteous and professional. Everything is clean and well maintained.  They have nice showers (which feel fantastic after a week of solar showers), laundry, pool, etc.

We have spent the past two days hanging on the boat, taking the trolley into town to shop and bar crawl, visiting with our awesome neighbors mike, lee, and marvin, and sleeping with no worries of impending death as tropical storm colin roared over us.

Now the plan is to leave first thing in the morning (wednesday) for Marco Island and get ready for the big jump across to the keys.
