Episode 4: Upper Eastern Shore

Virginia's upper Eastern Shore is home to one of the most photographed wildlife events in the U.S. - Chincoteague's wild pony swim. Dave gives you an up close view of the pony penning on Assateague Island, which happens a few days before the big swim. The upper Eastern Shore is also one of the jumping off points to one of the most distinctive and non-conformist communities in the country, Tangier Island. It's a must visit. You'll also get a behind the scenes look at an oyster and clam hatchery, then travel just a few miles down the road to enjoy those fruits of the sea. A backyard crab pickin', one of the top 10 ice cream shops in the country, a few hours out on the water, and lots of great eating await you on this trip.
