Days# 37& 38 - Another Day.....Another Marina- Saturday, November 2nd, 2013

We got out of Deltaville around 9AM and we navigated our way down to Newport News, Norfolk and Portsmouth, VA arriving at 2 PM.  Here is what I have learned...we all know that "company" is like fish, and after three days you begin to smell!!.

We didn't smell from lack of water or soap, but no one appreciates good clean drinking water, until you don't have it. In fact, the only con I found about Deltaville was their water had a funky taste, a funny odor, and although it was potable, it was dirty to look at, and even nastier to drink.

We arrived in the Norfolk area at 2:00PM, then we wasted all afternoon and evening just riding around Portsmouth and Norfolk Harbors. We had dinner aboard 7PM and got into the Tidewater Yachting Marina at about 9PM. First thing I did was fill the water tanks, we know have 140 gallons of the freshest tasting water since we left NYC.
I made reservations this AM for Coinjock Marina in Coinjock, NC for Sunday night and Monday night, then we are free to go where we want after those nights are up. We hope to be in Tavinier by the end of November leave the boat and fly from Miami to Rochester to be home by the third of Decemeber or so.
