...and Seen Along the Way (FEB 01 - part 5 of 5)

Some magnificent homes, some in clear view and other only hinting at their grandeur.

Rows of Vikings, massive Rybovich yachts and the occasional Grand Dame.

A Manatee protective area where the creatures go to spa, enjoying the warm water discharge from the nearby Florida Power & Light plant.

There were all sorts of other things to see...

We even passed an Amelia Research jack-up rig that salvages gold from wrecks. 

It was a fabulous day aboard PERFECT ARRANGEMENT, not the least of which was the company of the Lingards and Edwards.  What a great start to our trip!
