On Tuesday, June 1, we left Oriental and started our trek north with stops in Bellhaven and then Coinjock for the 32 oz. prime rib dinner. We feel we deserve this after crossing Albemarle Sound even when the waves are only one foot.

On Thursday, June 3, we arrived at Full Throttle at Tidewater Marina in Portsmouth, VA. Jim had overheads run on the two working Cats, whatever that means. Whenever we stop here or across the Elizabeth River in Norfolk, the temps climb into the high 90s with high humidity. Palmetto Moon's a/c is great; however, it has trouble keeping up when it is sweltering hot. So, we tried to cool off by riding the Elizabeth River Ferry over to Norfolk to walk through MacArthur Mall.
