Time to move on again

Hi F & F
Well we are so vested now in the French Open tennis we decided to stay on til noon to watch the men's quarter final on our TV. Then off back it to see if the  ocean had calmed down after the storm.Indeed it had and with favorable following winds SW we set off for Fernandina Beach.
Good running and we arrived at 3.30 pm. We set off to try to find a new stern line as the one we had used to secure the boat during the storm , had rubbed so much against the dinghy lift it was holding on by a thread. Good thing it had broken during the night!
We also wandered the town of this quaint place , one of our favorites in Florida in fact the whole East Coast! Also it has one of Graeme 's favorite restaurants, Espana. Their fish stew is the best and he bought enough to take back to the boat and freeze for a later date.
We decided to have an icecream and check out the stores and sights.It was a special balmy evening with shops open late and a band playing between 6 and 8 pm .Very relaxing.
Later , we went back for a late 8. 30 pm dinner reservation and it was great.People were still coming in to eat at 9.45 pm. A popular place.
Over and Out,
E n G
