We have arrived
12 July 2012 | Marblehead, Mass.
Peggy/ weather remains perfect
We left P town yesterday morning and it was about a 6 hour passage to Marblehead. Flat calm seas, with little to no wind. But, we arrived. This was our northernmost destination, unless you count Salem which we will sail to tomorrow. (It is like around the corner from here.) Even Flori says she won"t need Bonine for that trip.
Marblehead is serene, and the harbor is filled with beautiful sailing yachts. I commented to Bob that every boat I see is so well maintained and shiny. (Every) Also the Corinthian Yacht Club launch is immaculate. Speaking of the Corinthian Yacht Club, Bob tripped on the top step going into the yacht club and he went sprawling forward and landed on the deck yesterday afternoon. He said he remembers tripping on this same step two years ago. (The top step is a little higher than the rest.) A woman sitting nearby commented that she sees a lot of people miss that step. I guess things are just very laid -back up here. Today he has a very sore chest.
We walked through town with Flori and Claudio today and then we enjoyed a nice lunch on the outside deck of The Landings restaurant.
