Portsmouth to Deltaville

We were up and out again by 6 am.  It was another long day with heavy overcast and some fog is reported on the Bay.

     As we traveled the Elizabeth River, we passed not only the 3 Naval Reserve ships, but found where 3 of the Norwegian Cruise ships are docked for the quarantine.  I didn’t realize that the artist, WyLAND not only painted on canvas and buildings. but he also did a cruise ship.  The Norwegian Bliss has one of his paintings on its bow.  All three of the ships had colorful bows.
     There was the usual heavy marine traffic on the Elizabeth, so we stayed outside the channel across from the naval ships.

     Once on the Chesapeake, the fog had lifted and the winds remained light; so did the north bound cruisers.  We only saw about 5 other boats heading north.

     We gave Deltaville Marina a heads up that we would be there after 6. They gave us our slip assignment and will be back in the office at 8 am tomorrow.  We can settle up then or call in the credit card info if we are already heading out.

     The sand bar across from the marina was busy with families enjoying time on the water. It was also fairly busy marina, with lots of people there for the Memorial Day Weekend. Many of the Canadians were waiting to have their boats pulled for the summer before heading home.

     After dinner, the sunset was beautiful, but it also brought out the mosquitoes. We caught some TV then called it a night.
