Since I am from the midwest and I am not familiar with crabs, I decided to jump right in and see what it was all about.

I ordered six large crabs which turned out to be ALL I could eat. They gave me a mallet, a knife and a fork, but I didn't know where to start. So, I asked if there was someone who could show me how to open them. A lovely lady spent 20 minutes showing me how to dig the meat out of one crab, and then I entertained the rest of the restaurant while I struggled to dissect the other five. It took me 2 hours to finish, but the view and the experience was delightful.

It was a great day for a motorcycle ride and a great day to be in "Virginia" ;)
