MERRILY WE GO ALONG

Here is a picture of Bill working on our computer putting in way points for our route. Today is Friday, Nov. 2, 2007.We made it to Coinjock, NC, yesterday. The wind is 20 to 30 knots out of the Northeast. We need to stay put for a couple of days. We are at a marina and there are a few other boats in the same situation. We are meeting some very nice people. Cruisers, generally, are very happy and pleasant.
Tuesday, the 31st we made it to Norfolk. It took us 6 days to get there because of the weather.
We went to Portsmouth. John and Fran needed to pick up a package at the post office. The package had arrived but was transferred to another post office a couple of miles away. Too long of a walk, we took a cab. We also had the driver take us to a West Marine store to pick up some needed items that had broken or "fell overboard". Of course we had to call a cab to take us back to the anchorage area where our boats were located. (Note to self: next time rent a car. It'll be cheaper).
