"One HOT Cruise"

Heather and Adam recently brought Abi up to Chattanooga for her first cruise on Play Dough. Even though temperatures had been 100+ for several days, we all had a great trip. In order to stay cool we cruised during the morning hours. We also ran the generator when not parked in the covered slip and plugged up to shore power. This allowed us to have continuous A/C in the cabin.

It was actually too hot to swim. Without much shade around, the marina pool looked sooo hot. We all opted for afternoon naps onboard the boat and a trip to the Mall. Yes, Abi has learned to shop! She was also very entertained by the live band at the Marina's restaurant as they played island tunes!
