Having spent an entire afternoon at the CBP office to
get our cruising permit, we left Palm Beach the following day and started the
long, slow plod up the ICW. Thankfully, as it was a weekday and no national
holidays that we knew of, there was relatively little traffic on the water and
no stampedes at any of the timed bridge openings. This part of the trip was
always going to be boring so I will spare you all the dull details, we did try
and aim for some nicer anchorages on the way back to make things more
interesting but to be honest, nothing short of a win on the lottery was going to
raise even an eyebrow.
Stopped at a place called Peck Lake, we were dicing with
death here as we'd stopped at this anchorage on the way out in February and got
mauled by noseeums during the night. it was so bad that at 4am in the morning we
had to leave! But, as we like to live life on the edge we thought we'd give it
another go. Pretty anchorage and a 2 minute dinghy ride to the shore where the
Atlantic is on the other side, nice deserted beach and this time, no
noseeums!
