Jensen Beach

Jensen Beach, 27 15 N 080 13 W

We traveled the grand distance of 12 miles today. It was not a very ambitious day. The reason is that the weather forecasts say that we can't go outside in the Gulf Stream again until Saturday. So we had Wednesday, Thursday and Friday to kill. Also, travel Northward in the ICW is difficult because of fierce head winds.

We decided to spend at least some of the time being tourists and sampling the delights of the tropical paradise cities along the way. This afternoon we toured Jensen Beach. We're sorry to report that it only deserves a D as a tropical paradise. We saw lots of shops and businesses, but very few were charming. In fact I bet 100 of them were fingernail polish emporiums. Oh well, too bad.

Thursday and Friday we plan to visit beautiful downtown Fort Pierce. We'll see how that shapes up.
