Fort Monroe
2023年5月6日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 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.もっと詳しく

Anchoring in Deltaville, we stayed for two nights due to the lightning storm. Nearby was a restaurant with delicious low country boil and a friendly yacht club that allowed us to dock the dinghy.

Tangier Island
2023年5月10日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F
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.もっと詳しく

Saint Michaels
2023年5月15日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 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.もっと詳しく

Birthday in Rock Hall
2023年5月18日, アメリカ ⋅ ☀️ 52 °F
We had coffee and coffee cake in the morning to celebrate Boris Birthday and then departed Annapolis for Rock Hall. Rock Hall has the Waterman restaurant that also has a dock. We tied up to the dock and had drinks and dinner on the patio. We choose a pirate theme and everyone wore hats to celebrate. I also purchased a Smith Island Cake that we all enjoyed for the birthday festivities.もっと詳しく

Anchoring in Still Pond Bay
2023年5月19日, アメリカ ⋅ ☁️ 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.もっと詳しく

Chesapeake City
2023年5月20日, アメリカ ⋅ ☁️ 66 °F
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.もっと詳しく

Delaware City
2023年5月23日, アメリカ ⋅ ☁️ 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.もっと詳しく

Brooklyn Bridge

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.

I visited the twin towers when I was a teenager and wanted to come and see the memorial. It’s beautifully done with two large waterfalls surrounded by names. The surviving tree is nearby as is the One World Trade Tower.もっと詳しく
