The motor to Annapolis was uneventful. As we go under the Bay Bridge, the William Preston Lane jr....... Bridge, we head in toward Annapolis. And again it's dodge crab pots. This is a way of life here. Somehow there is room at the City Dock. Now the City Dock has probably 75 moorings, twenty five docks which are short 12 ft docks with pilings tot tie to , and room on the wall. Unfortunately, to do a dock you almost have to back in. These are made for power boats. Can't back in with the dingy in the davits. So on to the wall on the inlet. This is right in the historic district. Beautiful buildings.
The upside to being tied here is being right on the wall. The downside is how busy it is. At least a couple thousand people walk this every day. And three/quarters of them have dogs. Chester just could not control himself....Mr social. To sit in the cockpit put us on display.
Toured the Navel Academy. Only a block away. There was definitely a discipline that went with the opportunity. Interesting to watch 4000 midshipmen line up in formation for lunch.
While there our friends from last year at Tonnawanda ( the beginning of the Erie Canal) pull up in their dingy. They have been cruising since last year . Nice to catch up
Prepared to head further south.
