12 December - Day #10. Brrr! Ice on the docks. There's another storm coming this evening so we decide to move over to Pelican Marina. It's only a half mile from our current dock. The idea of hot showers and being able to plug Nellie into 120V (think warmth from space heaters) might have had something to do with our decision. Rather than cruise the 60nm to Edenton, we rent a car and drive. Our arrival there coincides with their Christmas parade. What a pretty antebellum town. Mayor Steve and Lynn (Carolina) join us for cocktails aboard Nellie and then we all go out to dinner. In Pelican Marina, Elizabeth City, NC. .5nm today and 185nm total. DBH
