Christmas in Fernandina Beach, FL

Cooking Christmas dinner on the boat

It's our first really notable dinner on the boat as a married couple. Stacie did a great job of making her traditional Christmas Turkey Dinner, She even made a nice Pumpkin Pie. Too bad I was distracted by all the great smells, otherwise I'd have taken a few pictures to share.

Out on the town Christmas night

Trying to get a start on new traditions, Stacie and I decided to take a walk through the small downtown of Fernandina to see who was open. We didn't find much in the way of restaurants, but we did find a few bars open. O'Kanes Irish Pub had karaoke, Dog Star had an old school DJ, and finally at the Palace Saloon we found some pool tables.

Leaving for the jump down the coast

The next phase of our trip is to take a quick run down the coast, to either Cape Canaveral or Ponce Inlet. Because we are going to be running for a solid 30+ hours, a Friend of ours will be coming down for the offshore sail. We're hopeful for favorable winds and keeping those forecasted thunderstorms away from us.
