Intro News
- We are back from vacation! We had a great cruise on the worlds largest cruise ship, The Oasis of the Seas. It definitely fueled our cruising dreams as we toured great the great ports of Nassau, St. Thomas, and St. Marteen. St. Marteen was our favorite and we look forward to spending more time there when we start cruising on our our boat.
- We spent Memorial Day weekend cruising our boat around the Ponce Inlet / Daytona Beach area. We launched the boat and parked the trailer at the Swoop Boat ramp near New Smyrna Beach Airport. We mostly anchored at Disappearing Island, but we did spend one night at Loggerhead Marina in Daytona Beach the marina has nice facilities including a pool and is attached to the great waterfront restaurant, Caribbean Jacks.
- We also spent a weekend at The Adult Summer Games, a crazy fun event created by a good friend of ours. Here is a video from a previous event.
