We have finally shed the winter coats!
We are all happy to be spending more time on deck, both underway and at anchor.
We arrived in Beaufort, NC yesterday. The kids are thrilled to play on the sand beach here and are eager to get a look at the wild horses that populate the island on one side of the anchorage.
I have posted some pictures from New England to Annapolis, MD.

I hope to catch up on the rest soon.

Our first bridge, it was exciting for us.
Mystic river.

We watched this train race across the swing bridge shortly before it opened to let us through.
This was our second bridge ! We've now seen many.

Watching it swing. Mystic river.

In Stratford we had snow one morning and temperatures as low as 10 degrees overnight.

Nayan and Mia playing under the dingy. They have found many ways to have fun in our boat world.

Sun rise, Stratford, CT.

While we were docked at Oyster Bay we took the train into New York City.
One day was not enough. We plan to stop and explore more on our way north.

Our last stop of the day was to see the tree.

It was a cold morning when we left Baltimore.
Lunn had quite a chuckle when we stopped to fuel up.

We saw many commercial ships in the Chesapeake Bay.
They are quite impressive up close.

Yes that is ice on the base of the bouy.

Our lovely Mia.

Nayan on the boom, it is a nice view from there.

Our crew - on our last morning at the town dock in Oriental, NC. Feb. 13
We loved Oriental.
We will be stopping there again on our way north.

Soon I will add pictures from our stay in Annapolis, the rebuilding of our transmission and our journey from there.

At last an update
