| Most of today was foggy & damp. Nearly 100% humidity. |
As we left Jekyll Island for Amelia Island, the weather was surprisingly foggy and cool for this time of the year and in this area. Fortunately, the timing with the tides was good so we charged ahead.
We had lots of dolphin encounters today. However, these guys were larger than most we had previously seen. There were more of them and they stayed around our boat for longer periods of time, playing and looking at us.
| Can you count the 6 dolphins under the bow? |
| A submarine degaussing area! |
