We continued our journey down the Chesapeake on Friday. Our trip included something new for me. In all the years Dave and I have sailed the Great Lakes together I've never been onboard when the spinnaker was hoisted. Well Day 2 of our journey included downwind spinnaker sailing. As you can tell from the first photo looking up at the Bay Bridge as we sail underneath the color of the spinnaker keeps with the red, white and blue theme for Nestle's Crunch - what luck!
As we approached Annapolis we realized that it was a beautiful Friday and it was the weekend of the power boat show. Taking these facts into consideration we opted to not go into Annapolis and instead anchored just north of the city in Whitehall Bay for several days. The bay is well protected from the Chesapeake with mature treelines and a few very nice homes on its border. A great spot, but unfortunately no access to internet, hence the delay in this posting.
Next stop Annapolis.
