October 22nd Layday in Venice

Today Is the day that the fan belt gets repaired and of course Nandad has four onboard none of which are correct for this particular one! No worries we will simply enjoy the beautiful weather and take advantage of all that surrounds us. Nana started the day with a long walk along the beach and a little yoga to help stretch those muscles. Now I had the perfect companion during my 20 minute routine.Picture below. 


Two hours of scrubbing the decks - Nana is determined to bring them back to a light oak color - we will see!! Hard work was rewarded by a wonderful lunch served by the Skipper. We then took a two mile bike ride to check out Fisherman’s Warf where we will leave IE until after thanksgiving. On our way back we passed a property that was going to be auctioned so of course we had to check it out. Right on the ICW with access to the Gulf, jet ski lift, small watercraft lift and enough dockage for a 70 ft boat!!! Now Nandad had to be reminded that our goal this cruising season is to check out Yacht clubs not homes!! A relaxing afternoon while the mechanic works on the boat and of course laundry is always a good reason to catch up with reading, Again as you all know Nana never misses the oppportunity for a sunset sighting.


A combined effort for a wonderful dinner followed by the perfect evening to watch the ocean, ICW, and the lights of downtown Venice from the upper deck where there was the perfect breeze. Who knows what tomorrow will bring but hopefully the fan belt will work and we can return to cruising.
