Concert in the Harbor


Yesterday evening, the sailboat Maggie M performed a concert here in the harbor from the back of their boat. Boaters were invited to dress warmly, bring a beverage, and raft up behind the stern to listen to french folk songs, classical guitar, and opera. It is the third such event that they have hosted, the other 2 being in the Bahamas.
I took the opportunity to play with the panorama setting on my camera to try and get the whole scene. [Click on either of the above pictures and they'll get bigger.]
It was a fairly good turn out considering the cold, the wind, and the lack of sun. Boaters are a hearty lot and not likely to miss out on a cultural event right in our own "backyard."
The music was quite delightful and I captured just a small part of it to share.

Hey guys. We're heading that way in two weeks. Only going as far as Ft. Desoto in St. Pete though. Unless something changes we'll be there the whole 13 days. Sounds like you've had a great NY & BD. happy happy from us in The Ville. Steve & Lisa
