August 22                                     New Castle, New Hampshire

Despite light rain, we made an early departure for Wentworth Marina.  It is easily accessible and a five-star accommodation with excellent docks and service.  David and I had stayed there before. Unlike the previous day, we had limited fog and following seas.  The five hour cruise was scenic and uneventful.  Dave again remained at the helm throughout the day.

Wentworth Marina provides a courtesy car for guests and we were able to drive into Portsmouth.  The downtown streets were crowded with people enjoying the lovely weather. Portsmouth has an air of viability with many chic shops and restaurants.  We were able to re-stock the galley with a quick trip to a local grocery store.

The marina docks were filled with people visiting, dining, and celebrating.  It was a delightful place to dock and observe the active local scene.
