We thought we were back in NC again when we saw the St. Augustine Light.  Looks just like the Cape Hatteras Light.

St. Augustine has lots of history and plenty of entertainment for all the tourists.  Here are two street acts we saw.  A Tin Man and a very complete One Man Band.

Castillo de San Marcos is the oldest fort in the US.  It was first occupied by the Spanish, then the British, before Florida became a US territory.

Some offshore routine (Ft. Pierce to Ft. Lauderdale).  Janet works on her emails while the dogs 'snooze' on the cockpit floor.  They like to brace themselves against the sides and against each other to prevent any rolling around.(11/28/00)

We knew were in the rich neighborhood when we arrived in Ft. Lauderdale.  Here are two of the many homes we saw and two of our neighbors in our marina.  (11/29/00)

TomBarbara.jpg (61454 bytes)
Two of our former NC neighbors were in Ft. Lauderdale when we stopped.  Tom and Barbara Todaro visited us aboard 'Charbonneau'.  We had a wonderful evening of visiting and catching up news from home. (11/30/00)

FirstCatch.jpg (81686 bytes)
Here it is.  Our first offshore catch -- 10 lb tuna.  You can read the "reel" story in our Living Aboard section. (12/01/00)

SandsKey.jpg (52842 bytes)
We made it to the Keys!!!  Perfect sunset in our anchorage just west of Sands Key.

There's a place on Sands Key that is really unique.  A man-made harbor in the shape of a keyhole.  If you follow the pictures from left to right, you'll see how well hidden it is.  We passed it twice before finding it.  Neat place!
