Our Last Day? Already?

Friday, Sept. 13, 2013

Friday the 13th, huh?  No bad luck here!  We topped off an amazing week with another amazing day!  It really flew by.

Usual haps: sleep in, lounge around, eat breakfast late.  Today I have to start using up the rest of our food.  We don't have a cooler so it's eat it or throw it out!  I don't like to throw food out.  So we finished off the eggs and bread and most of the potatoes with breakfast.

Then, of course, to the beach!

Got our kites going today!

Yes this is me, in the ocean!  What a blast!

As long as I had that boogie board thing, I felt safe out there!  It was a gift left to us by our trash cans from the previous renters.  We are leaving it hidden from the maid in the outdoor shower for the next folks.

Paying it forward

Tough day at the office :)

Home later for lunch then we took a drive.  We drove to the southern end of the island, which is actually the west end?  It curves.  I don't know where we were.  But it was "down there."  LOL!  We ended up in Hatteras, the town.  We went in a little shipwreck museum and found Blackbeard.

We enjoyed the little museum, it was interesting.  There have been so many shipwrecks over the years just off the coast here, it's wild.  

We came back for a rest (from what?) and then Brad, Lainie and I wanted one last look at our beach.  We saw our beach neighbors heading back from their last hurrah so we said goodbye.  Here are our chairs....they will miss sitting out there all day, I'm sure.

My feet will miss sitting out there.  That is for SURE.

That little speck in the clouds is our kite

Yes, it's a selfie!  Hey, I am always the one with the camera!

Our kite again

A passing doggy decided to sprint over to see Brad!

We are so cute!

We got some Chinese food for dinner and cleaned up and packed.  Still have the last minute stuff to do in the morning.  Then the LONG drive home.  It is so worth it, though!

We love you, Outer Banks!!
