Naples

Spent a little time on shore yesterday. Did some laundry, had long showers then went to Napoli on the Bay for some pizza. If you need some really good NY style pizza,  that's the spot.
After we got back to the boat we were glad we had a mooring ball. The rest of the night was marked by several lines of strong thundetstorms that rolled through the area. We woke up several times during the night to lightning and thunder nearby. We had a lot of rain and wind but the storms stayed either north or south of us. The mooring held fast and we were fine.
I was nervous because the moorings here don't seem nearly as well built as those in Marathon. The pennants are quite slender compared to the hausers they use in Marathon. But they held through the 30 to 40 knot winds we had last night. Tommorrow we have to go out to an anchorage for one night. Naples rules. Then Friday we will come back to ball for the weekend.  We reserved a rental car for the weekend so we can drive to the Nav-i-gator to see Rob Mehl.
