Elizabeth City to Alligator River
We left Elizabeth City late because I had to return the rental car. As I mentioned Candy has joined me so we are off on a new adventure for our marriage! It was a smooth ride down the river to the bay and over to the mouth of the alligator river. We have stopped at a marina a little early because it was the last chance to fuel up for the next 50 miles.
On the way down the river I got a picture of a big blimp hanger. They manufacture blimps there. all the blimps that we see, except the Goodyear blimp were manufactured here. Also Elizabeth City is home to the largest Coast Guard base in the USA.
Tomorrow we will be getting off early to make Belhaven NC about 50 miles away there is nothing between here and there, It will be a long day.

You two have fun. The trip from here on never stops giving amazement and fun. We had a plane fly under the bridge in the Pungo canal right in front of us. A surprise around every corner.
ReplyDeleteMom/Dad,
ReplyDeleteMom looking good at the helm! Good to see you guys hooked up. Sorry I have not touched based. Been busy at work and in Kansas again this week. Looking forward to talking soon. I'm already "home sick" from the being on the boat. I hope I can hook up on the trip again soon.
Love,
