Brothers from the outlying tables arrived throughout the day. Even a random pirate who tried luring some of the ladies away! Everyone gathered for afternoon drinks and appetizers aboard Orza. As the sun started heading for the west, there was a dinner call for the crew. Reservations had been made several miles down the southern shore of the Chesapeake Bay at Captain Groovy's. The cat herd eventually moved down the pier toward the parking lot. Sometime later, everyone found a ride and twenty six people were on their way to dinner.
We arrived safely and the crew was seated. Libations were ordered from the professional wait staff while me
nus were reviewed. Food was ordered and the kitchen did a fine job of delivering a very large order in a timely fashion.
The brothers and captives were pleased with the service.
There was rumor that Papy Jovial had slipped into the area early and was holed up in a Portsmouth marina incognito. This was later confirmed when one of its crew members - Swedish Navigator - showed up at the
restaurant. Gary was welcomed with several sets of open arms and managed to get his order in before the rest finished their meals.
After a fine meal and grog, some of the crew returned to Rebel Marina for a nightcap aboard Orza. Others headed home for some rest before the main event - Brise-Galets return - on Sunday.
