Port Washington, Long Island

We spent 3 great days in Oyster Bay. This is one of the best harbors to anchor in - lots of room, very protected, nice town, market,a pumpout boat, and the home of Theodore Roosevelt. We toured Teddy's home one day - very interesting & educational. One of the best things about cruising is that you take advantage of the local historical sites. The swimming was also nice in the bay. We took advantage of that as well, since it has been quite hot. Today we moved to Port Washington in Manhasset Bay. We were able to pick up a free mooring ball, and we'll stay here for a couple of days. Tomorrow we'll meet my Uncle Mel & Aunt Estelle for lunch who live nearby.
