July 8, Norwalk, CT

We left Cos Cob about noon (we needed low tide to get under the nearby railroad bridge) and motored about 5 miles into the harbor at Stamford and took a look around from the boat. Lots of sailboat and motorboat traffic on Sunday and it makes for an active harbor.

Norwalk Town Dock

Seafood restaurant across the harbor with music on Sunday and w/o air conditioning

Kept going another 5 miles to Norwalk and are spending the night at the Norwalk Town Dock. We took three hours to go the ten miles from Cos Cob to Norwalk because of our side trip to look at Stamford but it was very pleasant on the water and very scenic.
