This Sunday we launched the boat and took a leisurely tour of the canal homes in Edgewater. We meandered and mingled with the dolphin who frequent the canals and we even met a mommy dolphin and her baby. What a thrill to see them up close and watch the natural synchronization of the pair as the surface and dive together.
Around 11 a.m. we headed for JB’s Fish Camp (they open at 11:30) and it wasn’t hard to find through the islands and Government Cut as about a dozen jet skis suddenly appeared around an island and they raced their way to the restaurant for prime dockage space.
We had the spicy boiled shrimp and rock shrimp and it was cooked to perfection. Their Orange Cream pie for desert was just the perfect sweet/tart flavor and quite a good ending to a delicious meal.
Heading back home we experienced a pod of about 10 manatee. In our lil 16′ runabout boat, it was pretty thrilling to be in the water and surrounded by these creatures. With some incredible splashing and water roiling…we figured out that we were among a pod of mating manatees! Respectfully, we cut the motor and just floated in their presence.
How wonderful it was to know that these gentle giants were creating new ones and my heart just filled with gratitude for this experience. Not wishing to disturb them we floated out of their circle before starting up our engine. Then slowly we left them behind.
What a day….what a perfect, wonderful day.
Wishing you Sunshine,
