| The local fisherman |
We are well rested
from the overnight crossing and hit the ground running today…at the crack of
NOON!! After reviewing & documenting
the ship log, a nice hot breakfast on board and general cleaning up the place
we were ready to go exploring!
But WOW it was WINDY
all day! Once we found ourselves on the
main drag in Dunedin we decided to try the Jolley Trolley system. A couple phone calls and speaking to the
locals & we were picked up, headed north to Tarpon Springs on a $5/person
all day pass!

A quick side note: It
seems we amass a lot of coins on our boat.
Quarters are great for laundry but the dimes, nickels & pennies
really seem to add up. I counted and
rolled coins this morning so yes…we paid our trolley fare with 2 rolls of
dimes!! The driver said it was a first
for him!! LOL!!!
Tarpon Springs is a
favorite stop for me…nothing dramatically changes (my first visit was as a
child) and the people are so friendly.
While trying very hard to NOT duplicate our original stops Tarpon
Springs is the exception. I have family
in the area, Costas is still the best Greek food EVER and we were looking for
Harbor Host Herb! 2 out of 3 ain’t bad! But hey, we will be back through the area in
May…stay tuned.

We walked the main
areas and took a side trip to Turtle Cove Marina to see Calypso Poet & Blue
Moon – there weren’t home. But we did
see Kenny & Sherry (Blue Moon) at Costas!
Isn’t it great to be visitors in a town and still see people you
know?!? Boat life is great…
It seems the windy
conditions will remain throughout Thursday so I’m not sure if we will travel or
not…there’s more to see in Dunedin so I would be fine staying 1 more day. We will see what the morning brings…
God Bless
