Ships Log Day 8 November 21, 2013
Traveling from Wrightsville Beach to ??? I've learned this is a different destination each day! You THINK you know where you are going but sometimes nature dictates differently! Today we are going through the inlet to the Cape Fear River!!!!!(The graveyard of the Atlantic!!!!)
IT IS A SHIPPING LANE AND AS YOU ENTER THE SHIPPING LANE WHERE HUGE SHIPS TRAVEL THE ICW DISAPPEARS!!!! No white strip with magenta lines! All you see is OPEN OCEAN AHEAD and no markers! Steve somehow figures out how to get back to the ICW... and we survive!!!
On to Southport, up the Cape Fear River where we visited before we bought the boat. It is such a great town- one of the top town in America to retire. The pictures below were the ones we took before.
The pictures below are taken from the sea. We are so tempted to stop and relive the fun we had before, but decide to go on... it's only noon and we can make up so much more time.
Look at this inlet- it is right next to the sea! Gorgeous!!!!!
But...OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (SEE NEXT BLOG)
