We had to wait for the tide to come in before we could leave Kitty's dock. Unfortunately, that meant waiting until well into the afternoon. We watched the water compared to the boards of the dock to determine departure time. I told Kitty it was as exciting as watching paint dry!
Can we leave yet? |
While waiting for the water to come in, I decided to catch up on my favorite Netflix "soap opera" and binged on internet TV until Clark said we could get going. Just before 2:00 he gave the "go" word, and we jumped into action to be on our way.

Because it was too late to get very far, Clark picked out the anchorage at Glover Bight in Cape Coral as it was reasonably close. He had seen it on a prior trip in this area and wanted to try it out. We had mangroves on one side of us and the Westin Resort on the other. Just as we came in looking for a place to drop our anchor, another boat already there decided to depart. Since he had a perfect spot, we waited until he left and took his vacancy.

We thoroughly enjoyed this anchorage and would definitely come here again. We could hear music from the resort until 9:00 p.m. After that we heard nothing for the rest of the night.
