| So, the boat show is over and it's time to head south. One last Starbucks coffee and we head out. A bit wet getting to the coffee shop this morning, Annapolis downtown often floods, still we got a free croissant for our efforts! |
 |
| Catching up with good friends in Sarah Creek, Richard and Ward on 'Bagheera' and Jeff and Ellen on 'Sea Dweller', and enjoying a meal at the very hospitable marina here. |
 |
| Going into Ocracoke, for a bit of shelter for the night. We had never seen so many birds, what an incredible sight. |
 |
| Happy sailors! |
 |
| Cruising slowly down the Chesapeake day, there were beautiful sunsets and scenery to see. We needed a bit of relaxation after the boat show and these anchorages were just perfect. |
 |
| Stopped in Brunswick, and the saturday market was on. Daryl made good friends with the couple selling the most delicious crab cakes. |
 |
| Also in Brunswick the Lover's Oak, having a quick kiss, the Spanish moss draped from the branches. The Brunswick marina was great, the people really friendly, the laundry was free and there were even bikes we could borrow. Great place to stop on your way down the bay. |
 |
| Good friend, Mitch, joined us in Charleston to cruise down the coast with us. Wonderful guy to have on board and we had a lot of laughs together. He is now back in cold Vermont and we shall miss his good company. He left us safely tied to the quay at the Port Canaveral Yacht Club. |
