Vero Beach is one of our favorite sites with a limited mooring field it is expected boats will "raft up" in order to make room for any boat in need of a safe mooring. We were lucky we were able to get a free buoy next toWaves of Grace. Our early afternoon arrival made it easy to get the necessary things done to enjoy a dinner prepared by Pat and Walt. Registering was interesting since we tied up to buoy #42. The clerks in the office asked where we were and I told him "next to the mangroves by red post #14." He said that was impossible and that I was at #37. I said no that I was sure it read #42. He me took over to the office map of the mooring field and while it showed #37 I know we were at #42. To make a long story short their map is old and someone renumbered the buoys without correcting the map! It's like being assigned a motel room with conflicting numbers. You really don't want to be disturbed or move to another location. In any event, we stayed put and there were no problems.

Bon and I took the Go Line #1 bus (free) into town. It cruises past the beach and its shops while crossing the ICW bridge to other areas of Vero Beach including grocery stores, West Marine, Panera's and the like. After returning to Fiu we took our dinghy to have dinner with Pat and Walt. She served up a Chinese stir-fry over rice that would knock your socks off!
