Boat Excursion to Downtown Wilmington

What a beautiful day for a 26-mile boat ride to Downtown Wilmington! Last Saturday was bright and sunny. Temperatures started out in the low 50’s and were in the low 60’s on the ride back. Bundling up in the morning was a necessity! Passing by the North Carolina State Ports is always a treat. Who names these ships? Was there really a “King Milo”? A quick Google search yields various answers. Try it but be careful there are no children within listening distance if you stumble on the rap band’s video! e pulled into The George (dock-n-dine Restaurant) in downtown Wilmington and warmed up with some coffee and crab & corn chowder. We enjoyed their wonderful Sunday brunch entrées and each other’s company. Chicken and waffles were a hit!

Boat Excursion to Downtown Wilmington

What a beautiful day for a 26-mile boat ride to Downtown Wilmington. The morning started chilly, but the bright sun and smooth ride made for a great trip. Along the way, members enjoyed cruising past the North Carolina State Ports and taking in the sights on the Cape Fear River. Once downtown, we pulled into The George for a dock-and-dine stop, warming up with coffee, crab and corn chowder, and a great brunch. The chicken and waffles were a hit, but the best part was enjoying the ride, the meal, and the company together.
