Look that this remarkable reflection off the water on the dead still canal of the Dismal Swamp. It was like this much of the way along the Dismal Swamp. In fact, we did not find anything dismal about the the entire 
journey of this man-made canal system. The last 2 photos shows our very first lock. This was quite a rewarding experience since we have never been through any locks previous to this one. Our approach was tentative, but once we were greeted by a jovial lockmasterer, all our fears quickly past. Due to an impending storm. the lockmaster even offered to let us dock at the lock wall. But we decided to press on. On to Norfolk/Porstmouth. Still, that first lock will always be a special place in our memories.
