Deltaville

18 September 2014

As we motored out of the Great Wicomico this morning we saw our first pods of dolphin, they were very playful and seemed to swim toward the side of the boat and go underneath. Fun to watch. By the way, there are distinct differences between dolphin and porpoise. Apparently dolphin are generally more compact and look chubby compared to porpoise. Dolphin are also more people friendly and make noises that people can hear.

No wind today so we motored to Deltaville, Va on the Piankatank River. Fuel, pump out and water. Gracious people, let us tie up to the dock, borrow bicycles and ride into town to the market and a pub for lunch and a cold beer. We’ve anchored in well protected Fishing Bay to spend the night. Hope to leave early and make Cape Charles by late afternoon.
