Fort Matanzas National Monument; March 12, 2011

Link to anchorage at Fort Matanzas National Monument

We are in northern Florida, on the Intracoastal waterway, about 76 miles south of Georgia.
This view is looking forward towards the bow.

Houses line both sides of the channel most of the way


Between towns there are sections of undeveloped land and islands. 

 We saw several dolphin today

Pelicans have a long neck, but keep it tucked in while flying


We are anchored next to this Spanish fort. It was built in 1740 and is now a national monument.
 It can be reached only by boat and tour boats were coming and going until dark.
 It was quite startling the first time they shot the cannon!
