THE CRUISING LIFE - SCHEDULE ? ? ? ?

AUGUST 5, 2012

The anchorage off South River is great, we wish we could stay a few more days.  It is time to move on.  After sleeping in we pulled up a very muddy anchor at 11:20 AM. One of the best parts of cruising is the schedule, or the lack of schedule.  If you over sleep you just leave late.

From the South River we turned into the Neuse River heading east.  From there we turned into the Bay River & into Bonner Bay where we anchored behind Bryant Point in 14ft of water.  We are a little surprised at how few boats we encounter.  There is always the odd fishing boat or pleasure craft, but not many cruising boats.

After a short day on the water it’s time for a glass of wine in the cockpit.  We took the night off from any cooking & it was soup & sandwiches for dinner.  The evening was cool & the sunset beautiful. Tomorrow we head for Belhaven, NC.  The stars are coming out & we are both amazed at where we are.  Who would have thought 12 months ago we would be in North Carolina, sailing toward the Chesapeake Bay.
