Elizabeth City Docks (StM10.7) 9/20-22/10



Elizabet City, Harbor of Hospitality, and it lives up to its name! There is a gentleman who comes to the park at the city docks each day and catches lines to help the boaters dock at the complimentary town wharf. The second morning a different gentleman knocked on the boat just to make sure we had everything we needed. Even the Jehovah Witnesses stopped by to give us the Watch Tower and pray with us!
The city has the full compliment of facilities and attractions: museums, restaurants, music in the park and free rides to the store. Even a wine bar/deli combo that took our order for fresh baked bread by the loaf. Mike has been looking for oysters to feast on since we embarked and here we found them. On the lunch specials of the local seafood restaurant for $5.95! They were worth the wait!! The situation in the Gulf this summer coupled with the very cold winter has had them in very short supply.

We have been so fortunate in the weather with sunny skies and warm temperatures for a full three weeks.
Elizabeth City has been so pleasant, we've decided to linger an extra day and just "hang out".
