We got up early this morning to get going before the weather turned. We did have rain, but the wind was calm. We got ahead of the line that was moving across so we didn’t have much thunder and lightning. Made a quick stop at another seafood shop. We were hoping for some fresh scallops, but I guess we are just a little too early for them. We bought some grouper instead.
Today’s journey will be roughly 45 miles. We will be spending the night at River Forest Manor & Marina.
We arrived in Belhaven along with several other looper boats. Great setup here.
There is a manor here that was built in 1904. It is part of the marina. They run it as an Inn with 9 rooms. They also have a room for rent above the marina office, which offers great views of the harbor. There is a bistro here, which is where several of us will be having dinner tonight.
We walked to town today, stopped in a couple of stores. Very cute downtown, population is roughly 1400. I didn’t get downtown photos (I should have, it was cute).
We enjoyed the Bistro at the Manor. We started with drinks on the patio with several other couples, then moved inside for dinner. It was a fun night getting to know more loopers! Of course none of us remembered to take a picture🙄
