Last night we anchored near Oriental, for a last raft up with Beau Soleil before they take off to the Keys. They arrived earlier at the anchorage and were waiting for us with cocktails. We had dinner aboard FarAway and sang until we ran out of songs.
Today we did not leave too early because we were only three hours away from Beaufort where we are spending the night. Beau Soleil did not stop, they went directly offshore, although we were sad to leave them we made plans to maybe meet up again in Key West. Shawna must definitely be made a Spooner. Only she'll be the lead singer now.
We hired a taxi this afternoon after having tried and been sadly disappointed at the "best burgers in Beaufort" and went to the supermarket and the hardware store, we are ready to cross the ocean! Although last night Juan checked the oil in the engine and it seemed to be very low, yet another cause of concern, but we bought plenty of oil and hopefully we'll make it in one piece to Florida. The weather tomorrow will apparently be good so we will try the offshore passage to Charleston. If all goes well we should be there by Thursday afternoon.
