Sept 15 - 16  Tilghman Island MD to Portsmouth/Norfolk,  VA (Tidewater Marina)  

Always amazing to cruise toward Norfolk and see all the warships and realize once again just how huge those mothers are, how much they must cost and how many people it takes to run them..….this time i did not take any photographs but were were still checked out by the patrolling boats but not approached as we were last time…

calm day, riding 'up top'

Stayed two nights in Norfolk just to rest up and celebrate our journey to this point!  We dined at one of our favorites - STILL restaurant, chauffeured there via marina golf cart…i am such a sucker for a golf cart…love ‘em. 

Also took some time to draft our upcoming stops along the ICW - many stops will be the same because often they are the only &/or best marinas when traveling approximately 50 - 60 miles per day.  But i’m trying my best to find new exciting places to visit.  We surmised that we could approach LBK around October 5, 6 or 7th…weather permitting.
