In the morning we pulled up the anchor and headed for St. Augustine. We stopped by the fuel dock to top up and grab some ice. We made it quick and were still able to catch the 8:30a opening of the Bridge of Lions. We were back on our way north.
We got as far as Fernandina Beach, just a few miles south of the Georgia border. The marina didn't have enough water for us so we had to pick up a mooring. We had to drop the dinghy in the water, mount the outboard and zip across to the marina before it closed. The mooring was only $20 bucks a night, probably because the factory down the river smelled like it made the flavoring for BBQ potato chips.
We had a quick shower then headed over to the Salty Pelican (aren't they all?) for dinner. It seemed like a nice little downtown area, but we were out of there in the morning, headed for Brunswick. The view from the restaurant was better.
