Happy Halloween!

Our day started at 6:00am, as the alarm went off the excitement set in. At 8:00am, we untied our ropes, pulled away from Blue Dolphin Marina and waved goodbye to our friends. Our companion boats, Biscuit and Mississippi Girl followed us as we headed out to the ICW (Inter Coastal Waterway). We had super calm seas and beautiful sunny weather. For the first time, we turned left towards Louisiana.

There wasn’t a lot of boat traffic and everything went smoothly. Our furry friends loved the cool breeze and cuddling up with some blankets. We made it to Taylor Outfall Anchorage (Port Arthur TX) around 5:00pm, going an average of 8.4 knots. We traveled 75 miles in 9 hours today. Mike and Jen dropped the anchor and we learned that leaving the windows open at sunset lets in a lovely breeze as well as lots of mosquitos. Homemade pot pies for dinner, a halloween movie, a good night sleep for a 7:00 am start time tomorrow…be sure to follow us on Instagram for more!
