Pelican Bay, Cayo Costa

Yesterday was very windy, so we were hoping for good holding here in Pelican Bay.  We had no trouble setting the anchor, and settled in for a couple of days.

There were gusts last night up to about 30mph, with rain to go with it.  But I slept through the whole thing (thanks in most part to my ear plugs!)  Michael, however, was up to check everything out.  This morning is overcast, and can't seem to make up its mind whether to get brighter or not.  It is warm enough, though, for me to be having my coffee on the aft deck as I write this.

We met a couple yesterday just after we arrived, who spied our Canadian flag and came to say hello.  They are from Lion's Head on the Bruce Peninsula  and have been wintering here for 15 years on their 49' Meridian.

Our plan (guess) is to stay here a few days, explore the state park on the island, get sand between our toes, explore in the dinghy, and all those other things that make boating so much fun.  We just need the weather to cooperate.
