After office at Marge’s – out to breakfast. Then to Ft. Lauderdale’s “Historic” section where Branch P.O. is. The downtown area looks like a hurricane hit it – a renewal project that backfired. Also to Historical Soc. Bldg. to see progress Marjorie has made in a year & to a mangrove area park at Wilton Manor along Middle River. Back to apt via Los Olas Blvd & the beach. Picked up luggage & to pier at 3 to board Angelino Lauro. Gala sailing at 4:00 with streamers & whistles & tugs pushing. A little rough when we got underway but got unpacked in our little cabin & to dinner at 6:45. Ship is big! & it’s easy to get lost.
