Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Anyone familiar with Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel area on either side? I’ve never crossed it and it’s a good day trip for me. Looking for a good restaurant with seafood. Nothing fancy, hole in the walls are the best. Reading reviews online is a waste of time.
It's quite a trip on an engineering marvel. Here's a link to the CBBT's web site. There is an interactive map so you can explore the CBBT online. Sadly, the restaurant is closed but as I remember, it's no big loss. There is a fishing pier that is closed until the parallel tunnel under Thimble Shoals is complete. The toll is $20 and under depending on day and season. US 13 is the road and it's a typical US highway, you'll be travelling at a leisurely pace and the traffic at the south end can be bad. It's fun thing for a road trip.

Thanks fren. I’m very familiar with the traffic in New Port News/VA beach area. Been there many times. Just never been over the bridge.
