more clouds were in the forecast but they stayed away.. 45* .. a stop at the lake on the drive home to wet a line.. the Eagle family was out and about causing some chaos with the local Osprey inhabitants..
yesterday's weather forecast was right with all day rain.. .. over to the beach this early morning.. a nice sunrise with a high-high tide along with the full moon.... with little beach to walk on there were very few peeps out..
well we're not driving up to NY for the Holidays this year so we decided to extend our Volendam 42 day Mediterranean cruise by switching ships in Ft Lauderdale-Port Everglades on Dec 21 to the Nieuw Statendam for 28 more days in the Caribbean thru Jan 18 2025.. a total of 70 days of sailing on Holland America ships..
