Nana is very late with the blog today. We found a marina that would take care of IE while we are away for a few weeks. So she is now at Rivers Edge Marina and will remain in the sunshine while Skipper and Firstmate return to their responsibilities in Franklin. The short 6 mile trip up the San Sebastián River was just beautiful. The Dolphins continued to play with IE's bow but would disappear as soon as Nana took out her camera. The blue herons hiding among the bushes along the marsh and the snowy egrets sneaking along the shore were just magnificent. As we tied up to the dock there was a turtle swimming along but almost impossible to see due to the brown color of the water. Brunch at the Tiki Martini Cafe/ delicious on both counts, trolley tour around town, cocktails at the Casa Monica/Hotel Cordova but best of all dinner on IE - no wonder Nana is late!The town of St Augustine is so pretty at night with Christmas lights sparkling everywhere.
