....or how we went north to go south.

After leaving Cape May, NJ before dawn to catch a favorable tide up
Delaware Bay, we hit the C&D Canal at almost exactly high tide which
meant that we now had a favorable current going south in the
Chesapeake. It doesn't get much better than that. The current plan
is to take a few days R&R in the Sassafras River before continuing
south. We've got to at least wait for it to stop raining in North
Carolina.
