October 11 & 12, 2016 Annapolis

October 11, 2017
8:00am- Seeing that it was 47 degrees in the boat this morning, I decided to stay covered in my duvet while talking to Nicky, my daughter, who called me this morning.
9:00am-  Steve and I are sipping on coffee having our breakfast while watching all the new power boats come in to set up for this weekends boat show. It is amazing how all the sailboats left yesterday after the show ended. 


10:30am- Steve went to a place with fast Wi-Fi to download the latest Navionics charts which also includes the tides.  It took him 4 hrs. I stayed on the boat, did some computer work and knitting.
2:45pm- Steve and I went for cappuccinos  and then we visited the Naval Academy.  I have to say it was very impressive.  We watch a video which explained the intense training, schooling and discipline it took to become an officer. 
We took different photos at the Naval Academy

5:00pm- Before dinner, we went to fuel up and filled up our water tanks.  We figured we might as well get ready since we plan on leaving early Thursday.

7:30am- Woke up this morning to do my exercise.  I figured out a way to do my weight bearing exercises in the boat while Steve was still in bed.  It is too cold in the morning to do it outside and there is a heavy dew on the boat.
The sun is shining and it is warming up.
Poor Steve wants to watch either the Today Show news or NBC news on the computer but because we do not have cable or satellite, they do not offer free online streaming.  And to watch it on TV is very frustrating because every time the boat swings around, the reception is poor. 
10:00am- Back to the laundry mat.  

1:30pm- We had an electrician come and look at our plug since the generator would not power the boat.  Turns out the neutral and the safety ground were reversed so all is working fine now. 
At least they figured it out. 
4:00pm- Marc, Steve's friend, picked us up and drove us to the grocery store.  We stocked up before leaving for Oxford tomorrow.  After dinner, we went for a shower, came back and put up the dinghy and tied down the kayak.  
We are ready for our big day tomorrow.  It is time to move on.  

Can't believe that the boats at Fifty Point are already coming out of the water.
