We arrived in Norfolk two days ago after crossing the Pamilico and Ablemarle Sounds, the Dismal Swamp, and the bridges of Norfolk. The past few travel days prior to arriving in Norfolk were uneventful which is the way we like it. We enjoyed free dockage at the Elizabeth City town docks and treated ourselves to dinner and a movie at the Carolina Movie Theater.

We are concerned about the most recent weather forcast. We were invited to dock at the Norfolk Yacht Club to wait out the storm. The winds are reaching 40knots and the waves crashing over the floating docks making them impassable. Our current plan is to leave here on Wednesday and hopeful arrive in Solomons by Thursday. Just our luck, the most violent storm we have seen this entire trip hits us 2 days from home. We are safe and secure and enjoying the amenities of the yacht Club. I will try my hand at squash later today and go for shower number 2.
