After anchoring out for two days at Pensacola Beach, we cruised to Ft. Walton Beach and stayed at their free city dock. Took a walk over to the Publix grocery store at Ft. Walton Beach, clearly one of the best grocery stores in Florida.
The next day we continued to Destin, Florida about 5 miles further and stayed at a marina inside the bay near the waterfront. This was a beautiful setting to watch all the huge sportfishing boats come into port. We also took a break from boating to shop at one of those upscale malls (above) and saw the new 007 movie.
Then it got cold.......
So we headed for Panama City, Fl. with a good tail wind and some fairly high waves and temps in the 50's. Made the 70 miles or so to the downtown marina. The temps continued to drop into the 30's overnight. Brrrr... Fortunately, the boat has a good heater.
We attended St. Andrews A/G church today and I was able to get another interview for my research. We nixed plans to do any sightseeing since the temps were low and it was quite windy.
