Fort Monroe
6 Mei 2023, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F
This anchorage was to just be a stop for the night but ended up being an amazing find. The old Fort Monroe lies here and has a moat and occupied buildings on the interior. Lincoln stayed here and the former Confederate President was held here. We also learned about the Oozlefinch and discovered a brewery named after it. The brewery was a blast being pet and family friendly.Baca selengkapnya

It’s like stepping back in time. This little island is slowly sinking and has many buildings on stilts in the water. It’s also common to see headstones in peoples yards as they would bury their loved ones nearby. The island has a long sand spit that is nice to walk.Baca selengkapnya

Saint Michaels
15 Mei 2023, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☀️ 70 °F
One of my favorite towns. Small town feel with adorable homes and shops. Tasty food and lovely atmosphere. We stayed for two days as we loved it so much. We anchored on the south side of town which provided better holding mud. Crab boats would cruise by. The water was warm so we jumped in to swim in the afternoon. While pulling up anchor we did pull up a crab line, but quickly removed it with a boat hook.

Many loopers anchored nearby and we had dinner together.Baca selengkapnya

Anchoring in Still Pond Bay
19 Mei 2023, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☁️ 63 °F
We found a nice anchorage to stay the night before continuing our trip. The water was calm and the weather warm. Michael and I took the dinghy to shore to practice our beaching skills. The beach reminded me of home as it was rocky. But these rocks were smooth, pink, and white. There was also a neat rock formation and an amazing sunset.Baca selengkapnya

Chesapeake City

We’ve left the Chesapeake Bay and entered the C&D canal. I wasn’t expecting much from this town, but it was surprisingly nice. We stayed the first night on the public dock which was next to the tiki bar. After lunch there, Annette and I strolled the shops and got ice cream. Later, Tonia and I explored more and found a restaurant with all you can eat blue crab. It was so good! The next day we anchored out and dinghied to shore.Baca selengkapnya

Delaware City
23 Mei 2023, Amerika Serikat ⋅ ☁️ 72 °F
This is the place to set up and wait for a weather window to continue traveling. The dock master was great, providing an informative meeting on how to travel the Delaware Bay. A bunch of loopers also came in and docked and had dock tails. We also ran into loopers we originally met in Myrtle Beach.

The town itself was very small with most shops closed except weekends. The original lock was also on display along with a diving bell.Baca selengkapnya

A walk along the Brooklyn Bridge was nice. At first, there are little items for sale and a sea of people. Once we reached the middle, the amount of people lessened.
