Another travel day

We left our dock just after 10 this morning and continued our travels south to ‘Tween Water Inn and Marina on Captiva Island. The Gulf was very calm again today so we were able to do about 2/3 of the trip outside on the gulf. There were many small boats on the last portion on the ICW, all going faster than us and leaving wakes for us to deal with – ugh. We were doing at least 15 mph, so we weren’t traveling that slowly.

We got docked by 2, so we had plenty of time to wander around the resort. It started as a series of cottages facing the Gulf in 1931, and those cottages are still here. If you cross the road in front of the resort you are on the beach on the Gulf side. And if you walk to the other side of the resort you are at the marina on a chapel off the ICW.

We wandered over to the pool area to get some food at the poolside bar. We were finally wearing shorts, tshirts, and sandals!

This is one of 3 pools at this resort. One of the pools is a tranquility pool, with no running, jumping, splashing, or loud talking allowed. What a great idea!

The rest of the day has been spent chillin’ and enjoying the warmer weather. This will be the first night in more than a month when we won’t need to have the heat on.
