Arrived safely Newport RI and tied up at Casey's Marina.
The customs officers have just completed their inspection. What a trip! For the
last twelve hours it was freezing cold and we added lots of extra layers of
clothing. The entrance to Rhode Island Sound was well marked with buoys that
either whistle or have a clanging bell so that you can find them in the fog.
Something we certainly never saw before in the Med!
The heavy rain at least washed all the excess salt off
the decks and fittings. We're going to check the adjacent docks to see if
we can find some of our cruising friends, then it's going to be a large lunch
with even larger scotch and soda followed by a l-o-n-g sleep.
