Traveling America's Great Loop, 6000+ miles at 10mph. Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Day 5 Atlantic city to Cape May
Short run to Cape May with a following sea, my sewing job held up fine and it was a nice ride. here at South Jersey Marina waiting for new upper helm controls to arrive for me to install (port engine going into reverse on it's own while docking is hell ). Once I'm done and the weather improves we are off for the C and D canal.
Day 4 STILL in Atlantic City
We spent a 2nd night here as Jim needed to make some phone calls about a problem with the boat. So, laundry got done, Tuscan soup got made and little did I know that I married a seamstress, Jim actually repaired the canvas so now we have some protection from the wind. All in all a very productive day, and I can think of worst places to be. Liberty pulled into the harbour for the night as well, so we will be traveling with them when we push on to Cape May. We will spend at least 2 nights as a bad weather front is pushing in and the part Jim ordered will be delivered to the marina in a couple of days.
Day 3 New York City to Atlantic City
Today we traveled up Hells Gate It wasn't as bad as we thought it would be but then we have more power available to us to fight the current. It was a Beautiful Day for travel, cruising past Manhattan by all the buildings and to Lady Liberty was incredible to say the very least. There will be lots of pictures to follow. Since the weather was so good we decided to push on past Sandy Hook and tavel directly on to Atlantic City. Tonight we enjoyed our Dinner on the sundeck looking onto the casinos all lit up for the evening, beautiful. The only unfortunate thing was we had no Internet at the marinia we stayed at.
