Panama City, FL – Apalachicola, FL - November 8, 2008

We left Panama City a little after 7 this morning and continued our trip in the ICW. Kay and Gene from Sojourn are also leaving today, but will travel in the gulf, outside of the ICW, due to the height of their mast. There are too many low wires and bridges for them to travel in the ICW. They also need a 6’ depth and some of the ICW is more shallow than that. We will meet up with them again tomorrow, at Carrabelle.

Part of our travel today was through Wetappo Creek, a beautiful, winding river. There were many fishermen out today, probably because it was the week-end. We had to slow down quite often to avoid waking them.

We docked at Apalachicola Municipal Marina at 2:30 this afternoon. We got off the boat and walked around town. It’s a nice, small touristy town with old Victorian homes, many converted to bed and breakfasts.
