Back in the USA

We made it to Beaufort, North Carolina with half a day to spare (it took us three and a half days, total).

Back In the USA!
Back In the USA!

We opted for a marina for shelter from what’s supposed to be a very nasty storm tonight (some sources are forecasting 65 knot winds!).

We’ve been cleared in by US Customs & Immigration, cleaned up the boat and cleaned up ourselves. We both have that tired-bug-eyed-sleep-deprived feeling, so we’re going to take a nap, then go find something very American to eat for supper.

We’ll catch up tomorrow…’til then.

      Thanks Pauline. It’s been a great day so far…I got my hair cut this morning (I feel a lot lighter, less beach-bummy), and we had a nice time wandering around Norfolk – Phil’s cheerfully indulged my every whim (including window shopping and walking around looking at fancy houses, which normally gives him a terrible back ache) ;)…
