It rained for an hour or so during the night. I got up early, worried that the marina may not have a slip for us even though I had made a reservation the evening before. No one was leaving the marina because of the weather and I was afraid that the dockmaster was depending on someone departing to free up a slip.
I called him at 0730 on the cell phone and to my relief he answered. But he asked me to call him back in 10 minutes so that he could check where he would put us. After a long 10 minutes I called him on the radio and he said to come on in. The wind had already started to blow from the north but the docking went fine. We were safely in the slip by 0815. Our slip was on the inside right next to the boardwalk. We could sit on the boat and watch the tourist and other boaters walk by. Nearly half of them had dogs so Sailor stayed excited.
We went for a long walk in spite of the strong winds. We showered at the marina and went out to dinner for the first time since we left Jacksonville. The food was just OK. That may be because we cook so good on the boat. The wind increased significantly into the night.
