Day 23:
We decided to stay a second night in our beautiful B&B called At Melissa's. You guessed it...the B&B is owned and operated by Melissa!
Something we forgot to mention about our drive yesterday. We had to pay at least 7 tolls, the highest costing $13.85. This was to drive on the New Jersey turnpike for about 80 miles. There were only 10 exits on the entire road. It is quite well maintained and for about the first half, the trucks were on an adjacent roadway which was nice.

Now back to today. Melissa provided a varied, substantial breakfast. After relaxing over breakfast with three newspapers to choose from, we walked the 2 blocks to the beach. It is a beautiful beach and we walked for a ways before deciding to rent bicycles. We rode on a bike trail to an adjacent town called Lewes. There we found a well stocked Italian deli which was quite a suprise. We rode back to Rehoboth and had a snack on the porch. Melissa has wine available and we shared a glass of good Malbec. Then we rode more on a boardwalk on the beach, took the bikes back and returned for more time on the beach. We watched a man surf fishing for a while, but never saw him catch anything. This evening, we went back to the brew pub (this is getting to be a habit) and then for a light dinner at a local restaurant that sources locally. All in all, a very good day. Tomorrow, we head to the Outer Banks, North Carolina.
