Quite a few people have been asking us if we are under way and if we are on the boat while working, so I thought I'd describe an average day so far on the trip.

We woke up this morning in Boynton Beach and our destination for today is West Palm Beach. So far, we have been doing all our traveling early in the morning, before work begins and before most people on the we even awake. While David was still getting out of bed (he's not a morning person), I started to get ready for leaving.

Once David was up, he fired up the engines and got our navigation systems up and running. I threw off the lines, hopped on board, and then we were on our way. Once we cast off, I made breakfast. Mmm, toast.

Navigation is up and running. Making toast in the galley. Yes, I'm British and I put butter on the toast below the jam :)
A very Floridian scene - marina filled with gigantic mega-yachts. We have to go under many bridges on the ICW - some require us to ask for them to open, including this one which was like an elevator bridge (instead of the standard swing-up type opening).

It's getting really hot here in FL and we cannot have our A/C on when under way. By the time we pulled into the dock here, it was already almost 90 degrees! (Later in the day it got up to 94!)

Once we were tied off, and plugged into power, we turned on the A/C and got to work.

Then I make lunch. Today was "italian" style pasta salad.

After work we unloaded the bikes from the boat and did an escape room. This was actually our 3rd escape room on the trip - we're enthusiasts! We escaped with ~10 mins to spare. After the escape room, we biked to a nice restaurant for dinner, where we celebrated David's birthday a day early and they gave us carrot cake for free and put birthday confetti on the table!

So - in summary, we woke up early, drove the boat to a new location. Did normal things like make and eat breakfast and lunch, worked for the day, then hung out in town for the evening.
