Tavernier Key

We ducked behind Tavernier Key to avoid some heavy waves that were going to hit the Keys, and this proved a good spot, even with NE wind. The waves were very manageable, just 1-2 feet at anchor in about 6 feet of water. The holding is rock solid, in a sand patch. After getting situated, we dinked ashore, just to explore. The first order of business is to find an usable dock. We followed a marked route leading to a canal, and went into a residential area on the canal. We stopped at the first person we saw and asked. He promptly replied we could dock right here, at his house, and also offered to take us to stores, as they are some ways away. So we went grocery shopping and then hung out on his boat afterwards. Turns out he was from Alexis's hometown and had employed the father of one of her high school acquaintances!

In other news, Alexis baked a dutch baby. Now that sounds kinda bad, but check the pic 🍴🍮. Hopefully we'll get over to the Blonde Girafe Key Lime Pie Factory today, after more chores.

Yes, we got the key lime pie as well as key lime-chocolate popsicles. I think it was deserved, since I cleaned or hulls today!Weiterlesen
