On the Bay

To reach the Atlantic Ocean and return to Baltimore we had to sail over a body of water, the Chesapeake Bay. I was looking forward to that part of the trip. I have fished in the Bay many times and crossed the Bay Bridge many times, but to see the length of the Bay from a cruise ship was right up my alley. I had figured out that we would hit the Bay Bridge around sunset. I knew that two lighthouses, Baltimore Light and Sandy Point Shoals are on the western shore of the Bay. They can be seen from the Bay Bridge and have shot them from there and Sandy Point. On the return trip I was looking for sunrise and the Bay Bridge and I was rewarded. I was able to get shots of the lighthouses with the moon and a shot of Annapolis from the ship. On the way down the Bay, Shirley kept saying we were going to be late for dinner, but I wanted the shot of sunset and a lighthouse. We were sitting in the dining room as we gilded under the Bay Bridge and my brother shot pictures through the window, of course so did I as you can see. I enjoyed the trip on the Bay even if it was cold on the return trip.
