Hi guys, We are in Miami. We came from Ft Lauderdale this morning – not a bit of wind and waves only from other boats.  Coming in government cut was AWFUL! Anyway, we are anchored behind Miami yacht club and will be here for probably a week. Weather today is nice and sunny and not too hot. Yesterday we saw 2 big-ass iguanas on the bridge supports in the ICW. They were 3-4 ft long, kind of orange-brown. One of them had a spiny back like a porcupine and in Vero Beach we saw a big alligator on the other side of the river.
We will be going into Bimini when we cross. The marina there has a 12 ft entrance and is pretty cheap.  Karen and I figure we can stay in the Bahamas for 3 months before we MUST come back to the states to check out the fresh inventory at the Goodwills. Man, that is the place to shop here. You can even get great furniture.
