Some pics of the Naval Academy

Bancraft Hall US Naval Academy an amazing place: “The sprawling residence is home to more than 4,200 young men and women and is a veritable self-contained city. The place is so big it has its own ZIP code: 21412. Its past and current residents fondly refer to it as “Mother B” or “Mother Bancroft.”

Some pics from the neighbourhood

what a treat having a dock in front of your own garden
oh I just loved all the pretty flowers
Annapolis had many streets with proper side walks on either side
some people also need garages for their boats
our mooring place was so nice!!!
sorry- again flowers- but ain’t it pretty???
beautiful gardens
sooorrryyyyy
our first pump out experience, quite comfortable. we could just hail the pump out boat
(number one and number two has to go in a so called “blackwater tank” close to shore in the US, therefore one can fortunately call the pump out boat which comes by to suck out the tank before it gets overloaded, we were surprised how easy that worked
a very narrow house with only half of a street number
nooooooo
the anchorage by night – it was really a nice place!
it did rain but it still looked so nice in spring
couldn’t make my mind up which pic was nicer
