We stopped at a hotel in Ashland, VA to break up the drive.
We got to the Outer Banks around noon on Sunday and hiked and picknicked at Nags Head woods while we waited for our house to be ready. Turtles and blue crabs were easy to find.
Our house still wasn't ready after hiking so we went stopped by a public beach, checked out a campground and went to Bodie Island lighthouse.
We pulled into our house at 4, just a minute before Amy. Miss-T View was a perfect house for all of us. It was about 4 houses back from the ocean and so just a short walk to the beach. It had a crow's nest that you could see the ocean from and a hot tub on the lower deck.
We spent the days on the beach and spent most of the evenings out and about.
On Monday Amy took us on a sunset dolphin cruise in the inlet. It was beautiful and we saw lots of dolphins.
We capped off the night with some homemade ice cream from Big Bucks in Manteo.
Other nights we went to Oregon Inlet,
Jeanette's Pier,
the Alligator River Wildlife Refuge,
celebrated Amy's 40th birthday,
and hung out on the beach.
