Into North Carolina

We left Cherry Hill in a drizzle heading toward Annapolis MD and our first view of the Atlantic coastline. We stopped at a Rite Aid so I could buy an Annapolis t shirt and ended up talking to a local about how to go down the coast. For a short while we were back in ag land. We entered Delaware waiting for our first glimpse of Atlantic. It was not to be. The entire area is built up and iron rangers guard all the entrances to the beach. The communities were all gated. There were a number of farm stands mixed in with antique stores. Once past the heavy tourist areas, there were fields of tomatoes and packing plants and two Tyson chicken plants.

The second bridge we crossed over the chesapeake bay had two tunnels that went under the bay. It was a good thing we turned off our propane tanks that first time because we were stopped and inspected before we entered the tunnel to Norfolk.

Since we wanted to get through all that in light traffic, we passed all the RV parks along the way. We stopped at 8:45pm and are spending the night in the Tar Heel BBQ parking lot in Eure NC.
