We left Annapolis at around 11.30am following a leisurely morning. We weren't in any hurry to set sail as we knew that we had a reasonably short journey to our next destination; Kent Island where we planned to spend the night at a marina called Mears Point. The weather was beautiful and we made good time on our journey which took around 4 hours. We motored most of the way but did manage to get a bit of sailing in.
We had to pass under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge which spans 4 miles across the bay. It was exciting passing under such a huge and oppressive structure, we suddenly felt very small.
We arrived into Mears Point Marina at about 3.30pm, straightened Jubilee out and then headed straight to the pool to let Tabitha cool off and have a splash around. The Marina is pleasant enough but is very close to a busy main road and the facilities seem a little tired. It makes me realise how lucky we are to have a slip at Herrington Harbour.
Good girl Tabby, keep sleeping through the night for mummy and daddy. Sounds as if she loves sailing. xxxxxxxx
