After returning to Zendo we had lunch onboard and pulled up anchor by 1:25 for the short 75 minute cruise up the Corsica River to an anchorage in Centreville, MD. This one was also quite nice though not as pleasant as the day before. We took a very long dinghy ride to the little town of Centreville which is set quite a ways back from the river.
We walked along the side of the road and up a hill and eventually came to the town. Centreville is the largest town and county seat of Queen Anne’s County has a population of only 2,100. It was incorporated in 1794. There is some attractive architecture in town - Victorian homes with wrap around porches, late 19th century rows of commercial buildings and some newer architecture as well.
But Centreville is very small and nothing much was open as we walked along the streets. We decided that it wasn’t worth a return visit especially since we can’t take Zendo up to the town dock as the waters are too shallow.
We returned to Zendo and had a delicious dinner of chicken with vinegar, broccoli with anchovies and garlic and a couscous mix. We turned in relatively early so we could get up and leave first thing the next morning. Our connectivity here is very poor and I have my Spanish tutoring session on Tuesday mornings so we decided to make the quick trip to the Chestertown Marina, (with hopefully good connectivity), in time for my 9:30 lesson.
