Boca Raton, FL

Anchored for the night in Lake Worth (Palm Beach) about 35 mi south of Stuart. Then did another 5 hr day down to Boca Raton. As you loyal (and observant) bloggers know, the ICW begins at Mile Zero in Norfolk. South of Stuart we passed Mile 1000 (statute miles). Little milestones like this keep us going.

This is truly the land of big boats and bigger mansions. Also, the high rise condos have started to line both the Waterway and the ocean beaches. We are anchored in Lake Boca Raton pretty much surrounded by high rises. No real place to go ashore....probably couldn't afford it anyway.
