Chesapeake

On Thursday we started up the Chesapeake and through Norfolk harbor.  So much activity here.
 We cruised by the Nauticus that we has visited the day before.

There was every kind of naval vessel here.  We saw 4 active aircraft carriers and one undergoing a major refit in drydock, supply ships, destroyers and missile cruisers. Also housing barges, tugs refuelers and sub tenders.  If little Kimmy from North Korea wanted to start a fight I'm sure it would be over quick!





Below is an aircraft carrier with a small boat in for the foreground guarding it.

We rafted with Seas The Day at Bryant 1 anchorage. Jim made a lovely sushi appetizer prior to a shrimp with fettuccine dinner. This trading off chef duties is nice.  Not much more trouble to cook for 4 than 2.

On Friday we continued up the Chesapeake and saw this brick lighthouse.

It is called Wolf Trap Lighthouse and it has quite a history. If you want an interesting read go to

It has three bedrooms and is currently for sail if you are looking for a unique home.
