Titusville, Fl

Our buddies on What If and Charm departed in the morning.....we are staying north until after Monday when our son Robert will visit.

No worries, we'll catch up to them in a few days, probably in Vero Beach.

We spent over 2 hours in the cold (76°F) water scrubbing our fuzzy bottom.  We'll see tomorrow if it helps our speed any.

 And we set our alarm for 3AM to watch a Starlink rocket launch.  We figured this was the closest we'd ever get to it.  Was fun to watch and hear.  I'm going to have to figure out my night-time photo settings for sure.....

  2. Hey Dee, yes it’s incredibly loud. Shakes the boat when we’re that close. You see the rocket takeoff, the night sky Is incredibly bright. You don’t hear anything for the first minute or two. Then everything starts to rumble, a pretty cool experience.

  3. I looked it up, we were about 5 miles away from the launch. It takes sound about 25 seconds to travel 5 miles. Seemed like minutes waiting for the sound To reach us, but I guess it wasn’t that long!

  4. Hey K,
    ...that's really neat...we've been watching the Thunderbirds training out here...and they are often ahead of their sound...
    Love,
