Day 4

Today was a beautiful day. I hope to post pics later that reflect how nice it was. 16+ miles, and because I got an early start I was done by 1:30ish. We then went shopping for a few things I needed and a few other things Peg feels I need.

I finished up in Palm Beach harbor. I told Peg that; from Miami to South Boynton Beach it seems to be how big is your house. Then from Boynton Beach inlet to Palm Beach it is more how big is your boat. There were some impressive boats out there. It was impressive paddling past those boats and the Tropicana container ship.

Today I noticed Jelly fish in the water more than previously, as for wildlife many of the shore birds I have been seeing and a few new hawks. I didn’t see manatees today but I could see folks on shore looking and pointing. So I know they were around.

I am slightly ahead of my planned route, however, tomorrow will fix that. Paddling to Jupiter inlet, not far but there aren’t any options past there within my range. I used Google Earth to plan the trip. However Google earth hasn’t been as accurate as I thought it would be. So hopefully I can make better time than originally thought. I have an app that is for navigation on the water, and that has been much better.

So todays take aways: 1 The Navionics app was a great investment. 2 snacking all day along with alot of water helps keep the fatigue away.

Just look at that water and the reflection
