May 3rd, Day 6 – We enjoyed the quiet secluded anchorage in the Wye River last night. This morning we decided to skip gunk holing (exploring up rivers and creeks in a dinghy) and head to Rock Hall via Kent Narrows, where we had wonderful crabcake sandwiches for lunch at a cute little waterside restaurant. After lunch, we continued our journey north which required us to navigate under a very narrow drawbridge between Prospect Bay and Chester River. You know what happens when water is ‘restricted’ in a narrow passage? It speeds up and creates all kinds of eddies and cross currents. Ye-ha – what a ride under the narrow bridge with the current causing us to fish tail and, at one point, pushed us cross ways as the current was pushing against our stern– but Jim did an excellent job of getting us straight just as we went under the bridge and between the narrow bridge pilings! We continued on to Rock Hall which is really sleepy this time of year and mid week. But off season also meant there was plenty of room at the free city dock. We unfolded our bikes and took a tour of the town. Tomorrow we plan to head to Annapolis.
