Gulf Intra Coastal Waterway!

We crossed the Mobile Bay and into the GICW (Gulf Intra Coastal Waterway), where Dolphins played in front of our boat.

This picture shows us headed to The Wharf Marina at Gulf Shores
Orange Beach, Alabama. 

Very peaceful calm waters, until we meet a barge in this narrow passage. We have traveled 1158 river miles. Our river travels are completed as we are in salt water for the first time since Being hauled out at Anacortes, Washington. We have been attentive dodging logs branches and debris in the Mississippi, the Ohio, the Cumberland, the Tennessee, the Tennessee TomBigbee and the Black Warrior Rivers.  Whew!! Mission accomplished. Our next river travel will be entering the Hudson River in New York City.   We will remember and appreciate the calm waters and sunshine of the Alabama Gulf Coast. 
It is 71 degrees and our only dilemma is whether to wear
regular footwear or flip flops.
