Looking for our assigned mooring

We got confirmation about our assigned mooring from the Harbor Master and we will be at Pope Island, in New Bedford MA, not far from the hurricane barrier. We were told our mooring will be a "stones throw" from the dinghy docks so after we did some cleaning on the boat, we stopped by the marina to see where exactly our mooring was located.

Kids love going to the Pope Island Marina because there is a playground they can play on. So while daddy was searching for the mooring the kids ran around and played on this nice day by the water.

Dave (my hubby) had binoculars and still couldn't find our mooring. He went into the Marina part and asked the worker there and was told to call the Harbor Master. Since its Saturday, we decided we didn't want to call and bother the Harbor Master so we never did find it. But the kids had fun playing while daddy was looking.


 










When we got home, we remembered the GPS co-ordinates of the mooring was on the paperwork we had gotten. So we logged into Google Earth and we put in the co-ordinates and saw exactly where we will be located. YAY!!
