corkscrew cruising: Miami to Ft Lauderdale

This is where it gets exciting. Lots of big,big yachts and plenty of small ones too! There are lots of bridges through here, some we can pass under and some we have to time our traveling because they only open on specific times. Ex: some open every 30 minutes starting on the hour, then others open every 30 minutes on the quarter hour. Our destination today is New River in Ft. Lauderdale, arrived on the 17th and will leave on the 22nd. Rob n Sandy (Sandrobber) are there and we will get together for dinner. Also; Ken n Jo (Friar Tuck) are in this same river. It's always fun running into fellow loopers. We didn't venture out a lot while in Ft. Lauderdale; it was exciting enough just watching the boats go by while we sat on ours! I walked to Las Olas Blvd one day and checked out the shops. Publix is only a half mile away, so we grocery shopped for our needs. We also rode our bikes to West Marine, wow what a store! Sonny was in heaven!
