Annapolis - Day 1

We arrived last night, and anchored right off the Naval Academy. With a NW wind, its very protected and flat. The Ordways were on a mooring nearby, and have heat, so we quickly dinghied over for a warm-up. We met the owners of Kismet, friends of the Ordways who have been cruising for 2 years. They are headed for the Bahamas as well, so we were glad to meet them and will see them along the way I'm sure. We left Cambia and headed into town for supplies and dinner. We went to a restaurant called 'Buddy's Crabs and Ribs'. John and I had crab cakes and Old Bay chips and crab dip. All SO good. The crab cakes are so different from ones I've had in NE, nearly all crab, and barely any stuffing. They were also the size of hamburgers! We will be in Annapolis until October 9th, because we're staying here to see our friends at the boat show. The kids are really looking forward to seeing their buddies, Caroline and Teddy Williams, who will be here on the 8th.
