Fairhope Docks to The Wharf Marina 10/27/17

Lulu's
I had a third appointment this morning at the Chiropractor at 9:00AM and headed off on the BMW after breakfast.  Another great appointment my back feels much better.  Some small errands and then loaded the bike back onto the boat for our departure.  We headed out in calm conditions with rain in the forecast and cruised southbound through Mobile Bay to intersect the GCICW towards Gulf Shores and Orange Beach.  We passed the iconic Lulu's which is owned by Jimmy Buffets sister Lulu.  The smells wafting out of the place made me hungry. It rained a little but we stayed dry and the wind never really picked up so we had a smooth ride.

We arrived at the Wharf around 4:00 PM and checked into our slip for the night.  This is a huge marina with an equally huge condo/resort shopping area attached to it.  They have a main street with all kinds of shops and restaurants lining both sides and they also have a light show that lights up the whole street with brilliant colors and music.

The colors all change and they even have a smoke show
We will be here for two days so decided to stay onboard for dinner tonight and go out tomorrow.
