May 18-26, 2008 - In Norfolk, VA

Norfolk is one of our very favorite ports of call. We stay at Waterside Marina, which is in the heart of the revitalized water front. There is so much to see and do in Norfolk....historic buildings, lots of restaurants, interesting museums. If that were not enough, we take the ferry to Portsmith for more historic buildings, restaurants and interesting museums. There is a huge mall a few blocks from the marina. Norfolk seems to have a lot of civic pride with many events, festivals and activities.

We played golf with John and Vivian our first day in Norfolk.
An eastern kingbird at the Bide-a-Wee golf course in Portsmith, VA.The next day our husbands treated Vivian and I to a decadent day at a spa in Virginia Beach while they played golf at Bide-a-Wee. That evening we had a yummy dinner at Ruth Chris in Virginia Beach.

We said goodby to John and Vivian and hello to Robert's cousin, Joe, from Alabama. We visited some maritime museums with Joe, before leaving Norfolk.
