Today was a beautiful day for cruising outside in Hawk’s Channel. Calm seas and gorgeous blue water! We spotted a sea turtle that had come up to the surface for air but I was not quick enough to capture a photo. I tired not to get too nervous when we saw that the instructions for navigating to the marina included a 90 degree blind turn at “crash corner” but Kevin successfully maneuvered us around the corner with ease.
Marina Del Mar is home to the African Queen, the boat used by Humphrey Bogart and Katherine Hepburn in the 1951 movie by the same name.
While in Key Largo, we had dinner at the Hobo Cafe with dear friends, Leslie and Hal, whom we had met in Marathon. The next day we went on a wonderful snorkeling trip and saw the most beautiful coral and all kinds of colorful fish then ended the day with dinner at the marina restaurant.
