The first set of pictures shows a little bit about where we are located. We are on Pine Island where the blue dot is shown on the map. To get to the other islands, we must go back up the island and cross the waterway and go to Fort Myers. Then we can take the bridge over to Sanibel and Captiva. I enlarged some of the maps to show the canals that are located all around the area. People live on the canals and have boats/docks with a road between each canal. That allows for many, many people to live on the water and have easy access to boating. When we go bike riding, we ride all around St. James City and check out the canals and homes in the area.
Last night we went to Woodys for dinner. It was a bar/restaurant located on a canal. People drove or would boat up to the restaurant and the views were very pretty. Today we played golf. I had 5 pars and the rest weren’t pars. Enough said about that. The weather was perfect and the wind was strong, often blowing our balls to places they shouldn’t have gone. But it was our first day out and was lots of fun. Tomorrow we will bike ride, go to the pool, and wash clothes. Time to spend a day closer to the camper and Coco as we will have a long day Tuesday as we take the ferry from Bokeelia to Cayo Costa State Park to search for more shells. We have better equipment for hopefully we will have more success.
