    After a 30 hour bus ride, like you have gone through, I'd need 2 or 3 days to recover. Best of luck at CFI, keep us informed of your experience, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

    Any good local food near the cfi hotel?
    I try to avoid chain restaurants when I can. The locals do it better.

    Only one seafood place open on Easter in Cambridge, MD. No Uber here...2 mile walk...it was well worth the trip.

    Rooster's food critic column from the trucker times:

    Went to the Portside in Cambridge, MD. I lived in Maryland for many years so I am highly qualified.

    For starters, the cream of crab soup. Second best only to my own personal recipe. If they had mixed in a dash of Sherry, it would have been perfect.

    Their oysters, billed as the holy Grail... were smallish, but as tasty as any I have ever had. They're farm raised by a local grower. Farm raised are usually sort of bland. These tasted like the best chinquatique oysters I ever had.

    The crab cake... only one word for it.,.
    EXAMPLARY.
