18 bridges!

Whew!
Finally getting some miles under the keel. Today we made it to the Lantana anchorage, about 38 miles from.Hollywood. It's not the miles that take the time, it's the draw bridges. Most of them open only on a schedule that no sailboat can meet. So, you end up waiting at the bridges for an opening. It took us 9 and a half hours to do 38 miles, but - that is the most bridges we'll see in one day for the whole trip. Tomorrow we'll see only 4 and each day after that only 1 or 2.
We are planning a short day tomorrow. We'll go to Lake Worth, stop for a pumpout and some provisions and maybe meet up with our friends on "Paradigm."
If the weather holds, we"l be back on schedule in another day or so.
