They are off to Chesapeake City....Wednesday May 14th

After sitting in Annapolis for two days because of weather, Paul and Jim are off to Chesapeake City.

Remember last post when I said seas were calm and we were off to St. Michaels?  Well the wind changed and the seas went to 5 feet and rolling and until we found the land shelter in the channel to St. Michaels, I got pretty "green"....and spent most of the time drinking ginger ale...

St. Michaels is a very pretty town....the Marina was terrific.  Friday night Lynda and I tried our hand at the wooden mallets and crab picks on a few blue crabs...then Paul continued his quest for the perfect crab cake....Saturday morning we shopped and visited the Maritime Museum....makes you appreciate the conveniences we have today....

The trip to Annapolis was smooth on Saturday....we had drinks at sundown as we watched boats cruise "Ego Alley"...which is a narrow strip of water that used to be  part of the main harbor in Annapolis...boats can tie up to the pier on either side and their crew can come ashore for waterside dining, or the boats can just cruise up and back, saying "See how cool we are?".... this was followed by some light shopping on Main street and the best dinner so far on our trip....the calories were off the scale....

Sunday we took a trolley tour of Annapolis and then Lynda, David and I took a ride to Baltimore Airport for our planes home....
