Wednesday - September 16

Oh what a pretty day and perfect for cruising on Chesapeake Bay,   We left the Maryland Inn, put our bags in the truck and walked to Chick and Ruth's Delly (an Annapolis institution that's been around forever) serving breakfast-lunch-dinner.   Had a great breakfast and then left for the marina to have Catrina put back on the water.   
 
By 9:30 we were on our way cruising to Herrington Harbour North (20 miles south) in Tracys Landing and where Catrina will stay put till next spring.   Still nothing decided on the engine issues.    With speeds of 8 knots, we had no problem (it's when you go faster that the coolant starts spurting out and the trouble begins)!    Just waiting for Sean, Tom or Karl to figure this all out!  
And then we will make the final decision!
 
My Captain is so happy to be back on his boat!

Pretty flowers at marina
 
Three hours later, we had arrived, were tied up and  walked around this beautiful facility.   It is huge with so many boats, brick pathways leading to the docks, flowers everywhere, big pool and so much more.   We had lunch at The Dockside - another nice feature and so loved our amberjack sandwich which we shared!   And my orange crush - favorite Maryland drink or anywhere else I can find one!
 
Mark worked on the boat preparing for winterizing tomorrow. 

Our friends Charlotte and Doug from Annapolis picked us up and we had dinner at the Annapolis Smokehouse - very good and so fun to catch up.  We met them in Marathon and they have a PDQ like Catrina.   We were with them for the Blue Angels this past May, too.    After dinner they took us the Jabin Boat Yard to pick up our truck.    Now we are settled on Catrina for the night!

Thanks again for the ride tonight - much appreciated!
