Geo: 36.3015, -76.2198Stayed at the Town Docks for two nights. Very windy! Nov. 4th, 2014 – We are in Elizabeth City, NC!Hello All,We arrived in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, this morning at 11:30am. All is well - but a bit cold.Our first two days were great - warm and wonderful! As most of you saw on our track, our first night was spent at Hospital Point, downtown Norfolk. We had a good, warm day and everything went very well. We anchored smoothly, (thanks to our practice day in Deltaville) and we enjoyed dinner while watching the boat traffic go through the downtown area. We had a good dinner, and watched the sun set. The wind picked up overnight, and Tony was up a number of times during the night to check on our anchor. We didn't ... read more

Bonjour, ici toute la petite famille va bien. Nous sommes présentement à Elizabeth City en Caroline du Nord. Le quai est gratuit pour 48 h, mais quand il a un pépin ont peut y rester comme ont en a besoin. Super petite ville très accueillante. Voici notre position géographique que vous pouvez localiser sur Google Map. (N36°17.925' W076°13.000') Déjà 40 jours de fait, pour nous les journées ne passent pas vite. Quand on navigue les enfants en profitent pour faire les devoirs s'il n'y a pas trop de vague. Quand nous sommes arrêté, nous visitons les villages et les musés. Il y a toujours quelques choses à réparer sur le bateau. Souvent les matins de repos je fais les réparations, modification ou installation. A tous les soirs nous écrivons notre livre de bord. (Merci Carmen et ... read more

Pre-boat show view

From Annapolis to Elizabeth City and points in between Believe it or not we are still in Annapolis. We never thought we would be here this long, BUT… We have accomplished quite a bit. It is so good to be in a place that has such great services for the sailor. We spent lots of time at the Annapolis Sailboat Show - 4 days to be exact. The weather cooperated beautifully and as a result there was quite a crowd at the show .We didn’t let that bother us as we had a full list of vendors we wanted to see and wanted to take in a few of the free seminars. Believe it or not by about 2PM on the last day of the show we finally realized we had crossed off every item on ... read more

NC Welcome Center

Midnight Escape

It has been over two weeks since our last update but we have not had much internet service. We traveled north from Oriental to Belhaven then Elizabeth City. Elizabeth City has a great reception for cruisers. If they have 5 or more boats at the free city docks they have a beer, wine and cheese reception. This was started in the 80’s and called the Rose Buddies club. There are several older gentlemen that sit in their chairs at the docks and offer advice and rides to get fuel or whatever you need. The local Fresh market picks you up and brings you back to the docks for groceries. From there we went north into the Dismal swamp thru the locks. This time of year the Duck week is in parts of the canal and covers ... read more
