Into the Chesapeake & Yorktown

Our passage to Yorktown began with passing ‘battleship row’ in Norfolk. An amazing display of our naval supremacy and defense budget. With tight security scrutiny, we passed many warships, including two aircraft carriers (including the Harry S. Truman) and two submarines. A watchful eye is necessary as there is always much movement in the harbor with Navy ships, tugs (the commercial kind) and various merchant vessels.




Arrived at Riverwalk Landing, Yorktown, VA at 5:15 PM. A very nice public marina next to historic Yorktown. Shopping, restaurants and local attraction shuttles are all available dockside. All I want is a cold beer!
