Hollywood to Venetian Causeway, Miami - One final ICW day!

We were up and off the following morning and now we were on the outskirts of Miami so the scenery was mainly hotels and apartment blocks, not the best but still interesting to see something different.  This should have been a stress free day but we still have a number of bridges to go through and a very shallow patch at Haulover Beach, we knew we had to hit this at high water as people with 4.5ft draft had gone aground here and we were hoping to sneak through with 7ft!  Thankfully we crept through, Amanda was on the bow directing where she could see the change in the water colour and we did touch the bottom but thankfully we ploughed through, phew another sigh of relief.

The sun is out as we motor away from Hollywood
