After a wonderful Christmas respite with family and friends we ventured back to Dolphin waiting in Brunswick, GA.

We drove a rental car one way filled to the brim with summer clothes, supplies, spare parts, an extra Danforth and rode, and vodka and wine. Our rental, a Ruby Red Ford Tauras got quite a bit of attention as we drive South. Literally, at every stop someone would walk by and comment on the car!

Yuengling lager beer $5; Lemon 33cents; strong knife $ 5; Cotuit Oysters on the half shell at a SC Rest Stop…. Priceless !!!!!!

We stopped in South Jersey to visit family friends, then opted to take our time driving down the Delmar Peninsula, crossing Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel to Virginia Beach. It was a great opportunity to explore the eastern side of the Chesapeake so we will know where to visit on our sail north. Chesterton, St Michael’s and Oxford are places we look forward to visiting via the water; lots of history and charming villages.

This Chestertown resident is honoring each Afghanistan fallen soldier with a white flag.

As we drive south we could feel the excitement growing! We couldn’t wait to get back on Dolphin and the water!

From Virginia Beach we hopped back on Rt 95 and made our way to Savannah and spend a relaxing evening , dinner out and the night with friends from “Crescent Moon”. The next day we took a tour of Tybee Island and enjoyed a delicious lunch at a beachside restaurant.

A beautiful island, the beach is pristine!
