Second Port of Call: Stonington

Well we weren't able to avoid the fog. We motored all morning from Galilee to Stonington. We had high hopes of the fog lifting, but of course it didn't until we were secured to a mooring. It was a quiet day in Stonington harbor, mostly spent swimming off the boat and cruising around in the dinghy for a little harbor tour!

That's right, the Tall Ships Festival was in Newport this past weekend, and certainly made it difficult to get to downtown Newport within a reasonable time frame. The streets were packed with families, visitors and even locals checking out the festivities and old ships...
