DAY 8 Baltimore, MD to Delaware City, DE (61NM, 5 Hours)

We all were up early for a quick breakfast at a restaurant that is highly regarded by the Gluten Free application.  Although tasty, all of us had a few issues afterward, so we weren't under way until 10:00.  We are hoping to see Chris in Ottowa, Canada next month.  A bit more chop on the water than we were hoping for, coupled with the longer drive time to get to Delaware, encouraged us to throttle up and we made it to the C&D canal in good time.  Although we came in at low tide, the Delaware City Marina dock-master, Corey, knew exactly how to handle us and got us settled in record time.  We met two other boats on doing the loop, and were immediately invited to join them at the local diner.  Corey ran us down in the golf cart so we could catch the last 30 minutes of the steel drums.  Great meals and good conversation made our day end on a high note.
