Well, our new settee cushions have arrived and they look great. See pic. They are a pale blue colour and made of an indoor Sunbrella  fabric, which we are assured will not absorb any liquid spillage. The really make the saloon look brighter as the old cushions were rather dark.

So, we are back on the move and left Vero  Beach yesterday. We really enjoyed our stay there. The town is pleasant, there is a live aboard community there who are very friendly and a free bus service to the shopping centre. There is also a nearby bar/restaurant that does drinks and food at half price for 3 hours every evening (Happy Hour X 3).

We are heading down the ICW towards Lake Worth as our destination, where we will wait for a weather windows to cross to the Bahamas. We should get there tomorrow, though we have 6 swing bridges to negotiate on this next stretch. (You radio ahead and wait while they stop the traffic and open the bridge to let the boats through).

I will update the blog when we get to the Bahamas.

Best Wishes until then.

John and Georgina.
