Memorial Day at Fort Myers Beach



On Memorial Day Marty and I went to Fort Myers Beach by boat. The weather was great. While we were there we went to the top of the Lani Kai to see the great views. Here we are with our good friends Chic and Freddie. Below are some pictures of all the boats that were anchored out in the Gulf.

More Kayaking on the Calusa Blueway

Heading out of the canal in Bokeelia. We kayaked for 4.5 hours and covered approx. 9 miles of the Calusa Blueway. We were against the wind the whole way. Needless to say it was a great workout.

Looking towards Matlacha, we are almost there.

A day at the Beach



The Cape Coral Yacht club is where the city first started selling lots back in the early 60's. The Yacht club beach is always a great place to go and is always busy. You can fish on the pier, eat at KC's Riverstop or just enjoy the views.









We tried to anchor out in the Gulf at the Sanibel Inn but it was a little rough. So instead we went to Bowditch Point.
