Leg 2: Day 9 - We get to the ICW!!!!

The entire time we have been planning this trip we have read and heard about the ICW (Intercoastal Waterway) and we FINALLY got there today! That did require us to cross Mobile Bay which, on a map, looks like no big deal but it is actually huge and (of concern to us) very shallow except in designated channels. But we did it! From Dog River to Orange Beach because, where else would Our Delite go but to a place called Orange Beach? Are we right or are we right?

Above, we have gone by some Very Big Ships in transiting Mobile Bay. Below is some of the “scenery” of the Alabama coastline leading to the ICW.
