Albermerle Sound

Today is a sunny, warm day for a crossing of the Albermerle Sound. We are charging deep into the North Carolina south coast and are looking forward to a visit from our good friends Debbie and Jamie Easton. The warm weather seems to be returning and today they are calling for 78 degrees F. We are anchored safely in a small harbour just off Belhaven, NC and you can smell the difference in the country side. The trees and natural vegatation have changed to a distinctive southern blend, and it is glorious.



We had a surprise visit from Dan and Sue Godin while in Belhaven and it was good to see some familiar ThunderBay faces. They are heading north for home from Georgia and should be back in the North Country next week. Our next stop will be Oriental, NC and we are looking forward to some fresh shrimp straight out of the ocean. Cruising is truly about following your stomach from one gastronomic delight to the next. We wish you could all be here, and send a special wish to Jessie on her 31st birthday.
