Southbound

Hello, is this thing on? Is anyone still out there listening?

Remember back in August when we were in Gulf Shores, AL and supposed to head to Florida? Pete said that August was not the right time to be in Florida, the winter is. Well now it's winter so he wants to head South. So that's what we are doing.

The plan is for Florida and the Bahamas. Today we left the New Bedford airport and headed back to our last stop in August, Salisbury, MD. The sky was pretty clear this morning so we went down the CT coast at 8,500 feet to about Bridgeport, then took a left towards Sandy Hook, NJ. We followed the NJ coast down past Cape May, over the entrance to the Delaware Bay and into Salsibury.

NYC wasn't right under us this time but just off the right side. We went right over JFK airport. Sorry no pictures this time. The one camera we had handy seems to have a bad memory card.

We planned on going another 200 miles or so into NC but there was rain on the radar down in Norfolk. So we are staying the night. Same hotel as in August and we are going to the same restaurant too. Pete really liked it. The Market Street Inn (in Salisbury).

Tomorrow we hope to get to Charleston, SC. A family that Dan sailed with a few years ago lives there and are building a new house. We hope to see it.

After that it will be on to Florida. Not sure what stops we'll make in FL this week. We fly to Abaco in the Bahamas a week from today (Tuesday the 28th). We've got a reservation at the Abaco Inn for 6 nights. Should be nice and warm.
