Sea crossing to Fort Elizabeth


Today we're off to visit Fort Elizabeth, which apparently involves a short sea-crossing in an amphibious vehicle. 
Wilson is — how can I put this without causing offence? — a nervous sailor, so we were both relieved when we arrived to find the tide was out and our craft the "Charming Betty" would not be required to float, merely to drive over some very wet sand. 
Nevertheless, W paid very close attention to the location of the life-jackets and the 'evacuation procedures' video.
