Sunday, May 22, 2016, we were finally able to leave the Alligator River Marina, and we headed north into the Alligator River, across the Albamarle Sound, then into the North River to a marina in Coinjock, North Carolina.
 |
| This is the North River, very flat and calm, after we left Albamarle Sound. Even though the photos can't capture it, there were one foot waves in the sound, so this was a welcome break. |
 |
Here is the reason we stopped, this is Bish Godwin,
he was the art teacher at the elementary school in Spain, and we hadn't seen him in over 25 years! He lives in Elizabeth City and still teaches. He retired from the Dept of Defense schools in 2009. |

| Looking at photo albums and reminiscing. |
 |
| We are SO glad we stopped here, what a fun day! Thanks for driving over to see us, Bish! |

ReplyDeleteLooks like dad could use a visit to a barber :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful visit with you both! I wish I had known that you stayed an extra day in Coinjock. I could have brought you over to Elizabeth City. Sorry that didn't happen. I just can't tell you how happy I was to see ya'll! I don't get many chances to see folks from that other life I had back in Spain. Safe journey to you and I love reading all about each place you visit. Miss you already! Bish
ReplyDeleteWe didn't want to bother you after work! Sorry we didn't now! They were predicting 2 ft waves on the Sound, we just didn't want to deal with that. It was great to see you too! Thanks for the bug zapper! Hope we see you again soon!
