Church of the Advent
Cape May, NJ |
The weather did not look good for leaving Cape May. Plus the currents were going to be against us for proceeding to Atlantic City. The best time to leave was Friday morning when the winds were light and the currents in the North Atlantic were not as strong. Brian secured another night at the Marina and we rented bikes to ride to see more of the town. We were doing fine until Linda’s rear tire went flat. We didn’t realize how bad it was. Never-the-less, we visited the Church of the Advent (http://capemayadvent.org), an Episcopal Church in downtown Cape May, and got a brief history lesson about the church before the Bishop of the Diocese of New Jersey arrive for a conference. After that we proceeded to the downtown market to do some window shopping. We planned to proceed to the Cape May light house when Linda’s tire went completely flat. We stopped at a filing station that was only six minutes from the marina by car.

We called the marina and waited 45+ minutes before the owner of the marina, John Utsch, showed up with a replacement bike for Linda. We proceeded to the Cape May lighthouse and did some sight seeing. We were hoping to do lunch at a restaurant nearby and find another Episcopal Church named St. Peter’s by the Sea Episcopal Church, but we were chased by the serious threat of thunderstorms. We spent the remainder of the afternoon on the boat watching the rain, drizzle, and fog.
