One more day and we are there! (behind in blogging - catching up soon!
This is where we docked Dolce Vita in Portsmouth - on the city docks - Free!

Smiling Captain Ed - successful docking and at the right price! Who wouldn't be smiling? |
I am so excited to be so close to being on our way to the Dismal Swamp, NC! That'll come tomorrow! We
spent the night in Portsmouth, VA which is just South of Norfolk. This
was a free dock right in the city of Portsmouth, VA. An interesting
place. We arrived on a Monday where almost everything is closed.
Lucky for my wallet! I am so looking for a watch to replace the
cheap one that broke almost as soon as I put on! Onward....the city
looked a lot like many of other small town cities that we visited. One very
cool place was an old time movie theater that was showing A Star
is Born with Lady Gaga and
Bradly Cooper. I didn't find out till later that it was a
dinner/movie theater.
After our walk we
went to the docks and introduced ourselves to two other couples that
were going South and were traveling together. Lisa and Jim on
Pegasus and Sharon and John on North Star. We sat with them, chatted
and had a beer. Very nice and personable.

We ended up going
to the cinema with them and enjoyed the movie. The food was okay,
but it was fun to eat and watch a movie with a glass of wine!
We also enjoyed the decor of the theater. This is how the
cinema was laid out. It was well done and made us feel like we were
back in time!
Just to keep you up
to date on the Octopus, here are a couple of pictures of her.
