Today IE reached Georgia at MM 575. Nana and Nandad had a wonderful dinner with Vicky and Peter last night and once again are on their way. Leaving Hilton Head in thick fog - see the picture of the sail boat, if you could zoom you would find a bald eagle on the mast! We went through 9 rivers, multiple winding passages that includes the extremely narrow and shallow Hell Gate. The shipper was very calm today and really enjoyed the challenge of the waterways that this section brings. It is really beautiful with many porpoises playing around and the birds just seem to perch wherever they can. We decided to spent the night at a very quite Marina up the Kilkenny Creek. There are many restaurants but they only open from Wednesday to Sunday - just as well Nana and Nandad did some provisioning. It should be a lovely quite night with a wonderful sunset. The second picture is the Kilkenny Marina ( again if you could zoom in you would see it ).
