    Belhaven

    May 6 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 79 °F

    43 mile jump to Belhaven today getting us closer to the ditch to the Alligator River (on our way to the Dismal Swamp). Cute little town and very boater friendly. We were greeted with a welcome pack by a nice lady Diana who also is willing to take folks to the store for provisions (we didn’t need any). In the pack was a walking trivia brochure. You had to find posters on buildings to answer questions about Belhaven. It was fun. Not sure what all else is in the pack as it was the right size and shape for sleeping so Luna has commandeered. One other boat on the city dock with us tonight.. a couple from Quebec so James got to practice his French again. **Belhaven btw is known as the birthplace of the Atlantic ICW. It was the last section completed in 1928 with the ribbon cutting taking place at the River Forest Manor, a mansion in town located on the riverfront. River Forest is now operated as a manor and marina.Read more
