Cape Charles, VA

Mon. we journeyed about 25 miles south to the town of Port Charles located on the bay side close to the south end of the peninsula. Like most of the towns on the east shores (peninsula) it is a small town that has a marina. It was a town where the more affluent came as the bay side of the peninsula has sandy beaches. There are a lot of big old houses some of which have been restored and some in need of restoring. There are many more that have been well maintained. The sea side is mostly marsh with rivers feeding out through the barrier Islands to the Ocean. Returning home we stopped at a fruit stand in Exmore to purchase fresh strawberries & asparagus.
