Season 2 Episode 7. Sailing is fun: sailing with family is more fun! We are having a great time doing all these interviews with family and friends. This episode is a double-header. Not only do we interview Jennifer (Cristen's sister), we also get to interview Matt's mom (Marilyn) and stepfather (Ron) who came and spent a week with us on Moon Dragon as we sailed down the west coast of Florida. Join us as we cruise down the ICW (intercostal waterway) from Burnt Store Marina, across Charlotte Harbor, and down the west coast of Pine Island. We explore the super cool town of St. James on Pine Island, where we luck into finding a boat-up restaurant that even has a pup menu! The Waterfront is a fantastic place to go, especially if you love good food and your pets! I think that the dogs were having their doubts about this sailing thing, but this adventure really won them over for sure!
In this episode we also get to celebrate Cristen's birthday with a spa day at the Pink Shell Resort and Marina on Fort Myers Beach! But to get there, we had to pass under our first bridge and that was definitely a test for Matt's nerves! Once we get to the Pink Shell Resort and Marina, we discover that not only do they have a fantastic spa but a huge pool area. With lots of fun waterfalls and pools for the kids to play in, it is definitely up the little Dude's alley. He even got to check out his first video game arcade on a rainy afternoon! Sailors, even if you don't do the massage or enjoy the pool, you will love the bathroom and shower accommodations: they are the spa facilities. Bar none these are some of the best that we have ever had the pleasure of using in our travels. Well done, Pink Shell!
Once all the birthday celebrations are done, we bid a fond farewell to Ron and Marilyn and prepare for our first ever overnight off-shore trip - to Key West! That is... until the weather and seas aren't quite as forecasted.
