Cape May, NJ
We departed Delaware City this morning about 8 am. I had real reservations about leaving. The weather front had stalled over Delaware Bay and I was not sure about the weather. As it turned out, it was a very pleasant crossing. More answered prayers!! The Delaware Bay is large and relatively shallow. In addition it has a north-south orientation and has a very strong current. The tide here is 4-5 feet. If a strong South wind kicks up, it can be real nasty. None of that happened. It was a great day. We are now at anchor in Cape May, which is a fishing community at the tip of New Jersey. We will head up the intracoastal tomorrow. All is well except we are very tired after a full day of traveling. We still must eat, walk the dog, (which is an adventure itself) and prepare for tomorrow.
