We finally cut the Dock lines!

We pulled out at 9:45 am and headed out. The first Island that we visit on our journey is Cumberland Island. Hee Hee . Ok for those of you that don't know us this is our home sailing grounds and on the way out to sea. Today we had an agenda. Beach Stray Cat in the soft sand and check the zincs (which were fine). We got to Cumberland around 11 am and waited until around noon to beach. Now we are waiting for the tide to float us so that we can head out. High tide isn't until 10 pm but  so we still have a while to wait. We both got in a good nap since we will be taking shifts and sailing all night. We are excited to finally be away and starting our adventure. And yes a little terrified also. It feels a lot like when you are standing in line waiting your turn to ride a new roller coaster. We have a good breeze out of the Northeast which should help us travel south.

These Egrets weren't ready to wake up
