We got into Miami around noon. We sailed outside from Ft. Lauderdale to Miami and arrived at the inlet sandwiched in between a couple of container ships. The Miami pilot boat was helpful with navigation, keeping us away from the overtaking container ship and directing us away from the government cut where the number of cruise ships dictated no pleasure boats. (Homeland Security). We went outside expecting 10 to 15 out of the north west. Perfect, but it didn't materialize until we were securely anchored amongst the harbor islands.
Sunday afternoon is probably not the best time to arrive in Miami. Lots of small boat traffic and noise from bars and the tour boats. But it quieted down by 7:00 or so and we enjoyed the nice sunset pictured here.
Off to Dinner Key tomorrow - about 5 miles away.
