Once we got back to the boat, we ended up anchoring because we were on yacht club moorings, not harbour moorings. Oops! Found out later that the yacht club charged $13.00 for showers! I mean really…we weren’t that dirty!!!!!!
Then, we got a call from Brenda (Muth) Lovie who we had met about 13 years ago when she and her then husband Edwin came to Pubnico via sailboat. We had spent a few great days with them, their friends and Peg & Brad. Peggy had let Brenda know we were in New Jersey, hence the call. We arranged to meet up after supper and had drinks with Brenda and John. What a good time we had catching up on our lives, kids and reminiscing. It was like time had stood still. They promised to come and visit next summer. Really looking forward to that!
We left Sandy Hook early Tuesday morning and set off for Manasquan. The coast of New Jersey is one long sand beach dotted with houses…as far as the eye can see! We found a marina with slips (no moorings anywhere) and had to go through a bascule railroad bridge. (see picture) This was the first of many more to come along the trip. I might as well get used to it! The marina was immediately after the bridge. After showers, Albert & I headed into the little town of Brielle to look around and find a restaurant for supper. Had the best hamburger ever (Albert) and my Hawaiian pizza was second to none! Brought some back for the trip to Atlantic City.
Left Manasquan at 7:00 a.m.(Wednesday) and are now headed for Atlantic City 47 miles away. It’s gonna be a long day…
