Repair Update!

Yesterday morning we got a call from the engine repairman telling us our part will be here today. It was overnighted from New Jersey. In fact, one of his workers is here now removing the old part. When the part comes in today they will return tonight and put it in. We should have no problem leaving tomorrow morning to press on with our journey.

One thing about being held captive at the dock, we get to go for walks. I become stiff when we have days in a row that we don't get off the boat. Some places that we anchor we have access to shore with the dinghy and some we don't. The problem with when we have access is that we don't always choose to go to shore because we are just to tired and sometimes it's late.

The past two days we have gone for a walk and today we will if the rain holds back. Right now it is very overcast and looks to be threatening rain.

The picture is of a Great Egret that fishes from the dock by our boat. I was watching him yesterday morning. He cranes his neck looking for his prey(fish) and when he spots one he swoops in for the catch. It was interesting to watch him as he fished and kept one eye on me, making sure I was no threat to him.
