Set to go

Over the past week or so we've settled in nicely here in Ft Lauderdale while enjoying the hospitality of the Coral Ridge YC for showers and other cool stuff. Good transportation in the form of buses and our new found app......uber....thanks Doug and Walt. wHo?????
.....yes we got an unexpected visit from our friends Walt M and Doug M from LCYC. We enjoyed a nice evening of chat and pizza before parting ways.
They turned us on to uber. I had heard of this great service but just not had the opp to try it out. Well if you haven't tried it yet, I'd highly suggest giving it a test ride. Simple easy app, easy to pay for the ride, friendly drivers and cost effective. Available in tons of cities including Burlington. An all around home run for those who might not want to drive...or be able to.

Ernie, Bette and Hector....our very first uber ride

Yes...our bow is pointing into that cool northwest wind

Now it's time to move on. This will likely be our last post from stateside. We'll take advantage of a nice window tonight, Saturday to cross over to Bimini for an early morning arrival tomorrow...in the daylight which is always a good thing. Clear into customs and wait a day or so....who knows....for our next chance to move eastward and southward. Sometimes it's a great waiting game but at least it isn't Kansas anymore......
