We checked out of the Red Roof Inn in Virginia Beach around 7 this morning, and started on the northward trek across the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. It wasn't very hot, but the humidity made up for it. It was cloudy, and the ride across the bay was nice and easy. After getting the 360 degree view last year on the bikes, it was anticlimatic.
The ride was uneventful up the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and we made good time. We arrived at the Lewes Ferry port at 10:20, 5 minutes after the ferry left. Oh, well. We hit the gift shop and bought some new hats.
Funny thing is, the hats (with Cape May Ferry logos on them) were imported by a company in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. We had to travel 500 miles to get a hat from 70 miles away!
When we got to the hotel, we were able to check in right away, and we spent the afternoon with the family in the pool.
Anyway, we're safe in Wildwood for the week. I'll update this blog if there's something to report, or we get some good pictures. We're planning to do a carriage ride in Cape May, and it should be interesting.
