May 23, 2019 – We had time this morning for a nice breakfast, and then moved less than a mile, from last night’s anchorage, to Utsch’s Marina. We had made reservations for Thursday through Monday, so we could stay out of the crazy, and get recharged for the upcoming legs out into the Atlantic Ocean that will take us to New York City.
We pulled in to find ourselves the 7th to join a row of six Looper boats already at the dock- Balahula, United 771, Here’s To Us, Mimi and Me, Lily Pad II, and It Is Well.
When we checked in, the marina gave us a nice welcome bag with info on the area, a bag of fresh local biscotti, and a bottle of blueberry wine – pretty nice!
We gathered up with several other crews for ‘docktails’ at 5:00 at a gazebo on the dock, then moved onto our sundeck as the ladies determined it was too chilly. Some rain moved in, with some thunder around us, but it soon cleared and a rainbow came out.
Cape May is a historic vacation town, and has many Victorian homes to go see, in addition to all the touristy beach stuff. The next few days will be spent exploring, and getting ready to head north after Memorial Day, so the Captain needs a nap.
Smiling – as usual – as I caught up on your travels for the week!
Enjoy your time in Cape May: I look forward to reading any highlights you post 🙂
