Last night after dodging hundreds of crab pots, we were rewarded with aΒ most peaceful and beautiful anchorage off the Sassafras River. Now that we’re in the Chesapeake, we’re no longer stressed about places to stay. Unlike the NE, NY, and NJ, the Chesapeake has hundreds of tributaries for boats to hide out and to seek shelters. You can literally drop anchor anywhere within 5 miles radius.
Yesterday was comical watching Claudia obsessed over her Fitbit steps πΆββοΈ. She averages 10k at home but since we’re anchoring for 2 days not getting off the boat, she started her Richard Simmon’s routines while going through the C&D Canal. She started in the cockpit and was bumping into the steering wheel, I had to send her down below to finish, ending up with a whopping 6K steps. Very impressive for working out in a 40′ confined space.
We’re off to the inner harbor of Baltimore for some touristy eating and exploring. Can’t wait for some delicious Maryland crabs (we are not talking Crab Rangoon here).
Hmmm Claudia and crabs! I recall a not too pleasant story about some tiny ones π
Enjoy the experience!
I’m surprised you like crabs, certainly don’t like wearing them hahaha. Enjoy your journey I’m hoping your having a super fantastic time.
Thanks.. Good memory .. Wickford crabbing swim ππ¦πββοΈ
I am so empress Claudia about your 6k steps on Fujiko! YOU are my mentor! And this is great that Jim encourage you to do so! Great job Jim! Have a great crab dinner!
Thanks Marie-France. I’m waiting for tonight to go to an all-you-can-eat crab house π¦. BTW, when are you going to change your email from mfdb411 to mfdb-supercamper?
Yumm, love Maryland crabs!! Enjoy your day and dinner!!
Love the crabs … thank God they make elastic waist skorts π€
Sounds like itβs going to be a great day. If you eat too many of those Maryland crabs Claud will have to do an extra 6k run on the deck below. Enjoy your journey, the different cuisines that youβll both enjoy on the way is just an added bonus to your adventure!!
Thanks Gil … I wonder if they will be as good as the Crabs from Kenny Arruda!!
I’m looking forward to the dessertsπ°πͺπ©π§π¦πππ
PS. Now Jimmy is starting to look like a real ” Salty Dog ” with that beard stubble. Let it grow into a goatee and you’ll like like Captain Ahab!
I don’t believe he can grow a goatee π§
Let’s see π
We will definitely have to get together and have a crab fest when you return!
Definitely. We’ll bring the sushi and dumplings and Kenny will bring them monster size crabs. We’ll need to wear loose pants.
Glad you are having such a good time, enjoy todays sail and all those crabs!!
Thanks Beth.. real π¦ today yahoo!! However, no kenoπ© .. maybe I’ll buy a scratch ticket and have a MaiTai tooπ
