Another warm sunny day as we enter the Bay heading south. The weather forecasts another front moving through tonight with winds gusting to 40 knots. Although we have not seen much of the eastern shore of the Bay, we reluctantly decide to head to the relative safety of Portsmouth and start our long trek home. The naval shipyard, founded in 1767, today services nuclear powered vessels, and this portion of the Elizabeth River remains as busy as ever (you can see many pictures of the Navy vessels in our post of October 10).
We docked at the Ocean Marine Yacht Services Marina and walk the two blocks to the "Old Towne" district of the city for dinner. After checking the menu of several likely restaurants, we choose the Cafe Europe and were very happy with the excellent meal.
