East Coast Visit Including Williamsburg

From Dec. 27, 2006 through Jan. 5, 2007 I visited my sister and her husband. We took several local trips around Delaware, as well as a 3 day trip to Williamsburg, Virginia.

Chesapeake City
Whenever I visit, we always manage to spend some time at Chesapeake City. It sits on the canal connecting the upper Chesapeake Bay to the upper Delaware Bay.

On Dec. 30 we visited Delaware City. This is a shot of a civil war era star fort sitting on an island in the middle of the upper Delaware Bay as seen from Delaware City. We had taken a water taxi over the fort on a previous trip.
