At 11:30 a.m. today we cruised into our beautiful Longboat Key Moorings and officially completed the Great Loop. Yes, there were years in between start to finish but we covered all the miles so that's that!
It's kind of a bittersweet feeling to be here after all the planning and effort it took to get here; it feels unreal. Like tomorrow morning we should get up and do 40-50 more miles. Nope, we are just going to chill for awhile and enjoy this beautiful 80 degree weather.
We have our bikes and golf clubs so we are good to go. There is a brand new Publix about 1/2 mile away and plenty of restaurants to dinghy to in Sarasota, just across the bay.
On the way in this morning the dolphins were very playful and we spotted some white pelicans.
Dave is busy washing the salt off of Blue Moon, adjusting the lines for the tides and talking to our new dock-mates. We are going home in a few days for a month and then back at it mid-January. Enjoy your holidays dear friends and family. Over and out for now.
