We got up around 6 am and at 8:45 started pulling the anchor up. New River was a nice stop but nothing special. We headed north, planning on stopping at one of several different anchorages that we had picked out around Beaufort, SC. We had a good travel day of about 30 miles and decided to stop in Port Royal. We were just across from Parris Island Marine Corps Training Depot in Battery Creek. As we rounded Parris Island we could not really see very much. But, boy, the next morning we could hear them!! I think every Marine on base was at the firing range with plenty of ammo!

 |
| There is a subtle difference in the shoreline in South Carolina, more islands with trees mixed with the salt marshes |
 |
| Yep, we're close to a Marine base! |

| Pigeons? Over the water? |
