Let me go back 24 hours and tell you about our Monday. We kinda struggled on Sunday night to get into our DreamWay. My bottom bunk bed had a HUGE dip in the middle of the mattress and I woke up after two hours to a backache. I knew Bec was awake and I told her I couldn't sleep one more minute in the hole. So I crawled in with her in the queen and said to pretend we were in the T@B, LOL.
We stopped at the local hardware store to get a couple low-slung beach chairs, then headed down to the sandy beach access road across from the ferry. Rob found the perfect spot to back Levi into that put us within 20 feet of the water with a gentle slope. What a treat to open the tailgate, pull out umbrellas and chairs and be set up for the day within minutes!
We applied sunscreen, Rob set out this fishing pole, Jackson curled up under Trisha's chair, Bec pulled out her book, and we enjoyed the ocean breeze for the next several hours! |
We prepped and ate supper in the comfort of Miss Anne's AC. Shrimp quesadillas were cooked outside on the Blackstone and we all agreed it was as good as any restaurant fare! |
What a glorious first full day on Hatteras Island! Good weather, sitting on the beach, ocean breezes, supper cooked on the Blackstone, a new t-shirt and stickers, and being with family! |
