Elliott Key to outside No Name Harbour on Key Biscayne and then to Nixon Harbor, Florida

 We headed out after breakfast and even though no rain was predicted we could see the rain move over Miami as we headed towards No Name Harbor. There were a dozen or so boats anchored outside the harbor and we went ashore to Boater's Grill for lunch. We enjoyed cold Presidente beers and a tostones or fried plantain appetizer and then a cheese burger in paradise and fries. Then we headed along the bike path in Bill Baggs State Park on our way to the grocery store. A shady sidewalk take you past the Ace Hardware store and CVS Pharmacy and many restaurants with sidewalk dining. We loaded up with groceries and headed back to the breezy anchorage. We pulled anchor and headed around to Nixon Harbor and there are fewer boats and less wave action so a nice spot for the evening. On a weekend the nearby sandbar would be crowded with boats.
