More Discoveries

We spent last night in Palm Beach at their city docks, right at the end of Worth Avenue. Yes, world famous Worth Avenue! Imagine, all the wonderful restaurants, clubs and shoppes at our "doorstep", and what did we do? I made pasta for dinner, we opened a bottle of vino then we turned in early and watched "Cinema Paradiso".
Chip had never seen it before.
I cry every time I see it.
This journey is mostly internal; not just the amazing things we will see all around us, but what we will discover about ourselves.
Today we headed up the ICW past our first lighthouse of the trip in Jupiter...decided to pull in at Ft. Pierce city marina. It was a very rough day...choppy waters and a few rain storms. I got the best video of a half dozen dolphins who danced for us for at least 20 minutes in our wake coming through Indian River just north of St. Lucie inlet. We may stay here a couple of days. They have a Unity church. It's a very nice marina. We are walking distance to the old town and lots of good restaurants and pubs with live music. Captain Chip needs a day off.

Messages from Spirit

Each Sunday at church we select, what I like to call "fortune cookies from God", typed messages on small pieces of folded, colored paper from a basket; affirmations for the week. Yesterday, Chip and I received the following messages...Chip's: "God's love illumines my way and new avenues are opening up to me." Mine read, "Relaxation is not inaction. It is perfect poise in Spirit that enables one to crest the waves of life composed, serene, joyous and unafraid."

We were supposed to leave Naples this morning to begin the first day of our trip. Instead, we are docked at The Olde Naples Seaport, awaiting the foul weather in the upper keys to pass. The first day's journey is 94 miles...approximately 10-11 hours with no other possible stops in between. My captain is a cautious man.

Lesson one, learned last week: Accept change.
Lesson two...Patience.
