Serenity heading south...and returning home!

This morning we took a walk around town and it was so nice to see all the cadets with their friends and families walking around Annapolis. Annapolis is a beautiful city and is a great harbor for both power and sail boats to enjoy. We had lunch at the Dock Street Café which we had also visited back in October and we had crab cakes again as well. Our vote is that the Dock Street Café has the "best" crab cakes of all the places we have been to on the east coast from Connecticut to Florida.

This afternoon was the Blue Angels Performance over Annapolis and the Military Academy and all I can say is "it was spectacular...what a performance and it makes you very proud to be an American." This was my first time to see this event and I was very impressed. To see how close they fly together and the maneuvers they do is hard to describe, you just keep have to be here and see it, and that is exactly what so many people do. The entire harbor was filled with boats either at anchor, rafted up of at docks. There were cruise ships that take people out in to the water to see the performance as well. We had Len & Michele and Gerard (Len's very good friend) on Serenity along with Holly & me. We gave Emily a little something to calm her nerves and she was able to sleep through most of the performance. What a wonderful experience to be here and see this event. This is a once a year event and we just happened to time it perfectly to be here.

Cheers,
Holly, Ed & Emily aboard M/V Serenity
Fair winds and calm seas for all!
