The Great Dismal Swamp, VA

We are at mile 8.5 in the ICW - just before the first lock at Deep Creek. We probably ended up doing about 20 miles today, and we are now in the Great Dismal Swamp. The ride was chilly today, but pretty awesome going by all the Navy ships in Norfolk. The anchorage we are at is referred to as the Whole in the Wall. As you can see on Google Earth in the position location, it really is just a little man-made basin. There's around 4 or 5 other boats here too. Hopefully, that will be it for the night. We're in a great position to get the first lock opening in the morning at 8:30 a.m.

Thanks everyone for your comments. Keep them coming, and we hope you enjoy reading about our adventures.
