THE EAST COAST OF FLORIDA - is a whole different ball game.  Everything is bigger and yes that means more expensive.  We had one more lock to got thru before entering the intracoastal  and it is the St. Lucie Lock - this lock dropped us about 14 feet (prior to this we have been raising up before the lake and now the big drop back down). 

Getting close to the east coast now - just passing under interstate 95.

Jupiter Lighthouse at Jupiter Inlet

This is your typical marina scene on the east coast.   We feel like a bobber in the ocean.

This was one of the yachts dinghy - oh my.

Sailing anyone?

and lets not get started on the McMansions - this house went for a block in each direction.

Ok, just this one more - I can't believe how many mega yachts there are here.

 We traveled the intracostal waterway to one of our favorite anchorages at Lake Worth. 

What do you think - Is she waiting for the green flash or trying to figure out a way to get to land?

End of a good day!
