Cape Charles

After a rocky start to the morning, where my computer was taped down for a class, we passed the concrete boats and headed for Cape Charles Marina — a fairly easy docking, alongside the face dock, our neighbour’s a 100ft motor yacht. Although we only stayed two nights, we took full advantage of a marina and its quaint little town!
We did a load of laundry, ordered groceries from Instacart (and do to timing, had to divert the driver to a restaurant, which meant carrying 6bags of groceries a mile back to the boat), two coffee ice creams (the best I’ve ever tasted) at the Brown Dog, two oyster happy hours at the E&O, 3 wonderful showers (in a nice clean bathroom), 2 sunsets, one walk on the beach and lots of boat chores, trying to figure out and fix the rudder issue and coolant. Thanks Ashlynn for the gift card that allowed all the ice cream and oysters!!
We also managed to go to an Asian Fusion restaurant for lunch (Edible Art) with LOTS of GF deserts, a book store (I bought the book Maid) and a book sale at the Library. I bought lots, including Pawverbs… which I bought through Amazon later that day and sent to Joe and Michelle. I also sent, via Amazon, West into the Night to Ashlynn, and the philosophy of Coffee to Hugo.
After testing the cap, we realized it wasn’t the issue and deflated, had to make our way to Zimmerman at Herrington Harbour North, where they had capacity to work on Lorena immediately, 120nm away… up the Chesapeake.Read more
