Norfolk was huge! Lots of ship yards and very secure Navy yards.
Barges and large shipping vessels became second nature to see in the
channel. Ricky, Beth's son, came to visit and we went to the Norfolk
Cajun Festival. Norfolk has mermaids throughout the town, and each one
was "decorated" by a different artist. There is even a book written
that tells a story about each one. We bought a poster of all the
mermaids and had it framed for the boat. We anchored at Hospital
Point, between Norfolk and Portsmouth. We ran into friends from
Wilmington, Ron and Linda Gumm, who were headed around the Great Loop, and
last we heard they were in Canada already. We saw the live Regis and
Kathy show aboard the Pride of America Cruise ship.
