7/1/14 (Qwin)

Today was an interesting day, after walking out of my hotel I saw some cute little ducks walking outside. But after, we packed up our skis and headed out front into the ocean for about 15 miles. Once we reached an inlet we continued for 35 miles on smooth water in the ICW. Once we got out of the ICW we stopped at the Grillo’s favorite spot for food before we attempted to concur the Chesapeake. They called it the circle bar. It was a cool little bar that you can pull up on the beach and grab some good food and drinks. After we fueled up ourselves and our skis we were ready for the Chesapeake Bay. We knew what we were getting ourselves into some crazy swells, but maybe this was a little more than we expected. There were points where the swells were 2-3ft over my head. And at points the swell would start to break on us. This was scary and very nerve racking when we were only able to go 7 mph. This 18 mile trek took us two and a half hours to complete. But there was nothing we could do about it. I’m thankful we all were tough enough to take the beating that was given to is and no one showed any fear. It was an experience I will never forget. And once I saw the first sight of the jetties leading into rudee inlet we all let out a sigh of relief.
