Up at 7:30 am and Scot made delicious omelets for breakfast and went on a nature hike over the St. Lucie Lock. Left around 10:00 am and went through St. Lucie Lock, about 8 feet down. Cruising on the canal again and enjoying the beautiful houses and wild life once again. Then we get to Roosevelt Bridge near Stuart that needed to be opened. While the bridge was opening, a guy with a backpack jumped over the middle of the opening. So then the bridge stopped opening and we had to wait for a couple of minutes for the bridge to continue opening for us to go through. That was a little excitement for us and the bridge master. Now we are traveling on the St. Lucie River which was very windy to cross heading right into the winds that were probably 15-20 mph. Britta and Scot did their homework and picked out our anchorage for the night, Manatee Pocket. Anchored and went ashore to find a marine consignment shop and a bar called "Coconuts". Well, it was almost 3:00 pm and happy hour specials were in effect! Went back to the boat and did some research to find a slip while we're in Vero. We will be staying at Riverside Marina in Ft. Pierce.
