Island Hopping

1100 May 24, 2024 Island Hopping

This is blog #1100! When we were in Delaware, the old guy next door looked at our map and asked if we had really been all those places? Today in the campground, someone stopped to ask Tim about our travels and our map. Yes, we have been to many places and done many things!

This morning, I took one last walk though the Village of Ocracoke.

When I got back, we packed up the RV, attached the Jeep, and we drove to the ferry terminal.

We spent the boat ride next to a guy with a truck and a dog. I am thinking this was a hound dog. He had the most godawful braying bark…it made him kinds cute!

We arrived in Hatteras around 2pm and settled in at the Hatteras Sands Campground.

We got ready to go out on our bikes but it started to rain. I decided to rest and I ended up taking a nap. Tim went for a ride without me and I had just woken up when he returned…ahhh…time well wasted!

We packed a picnic and went out onto the beach.

We found a great spot. It was a little cloudy.

Can you see the rain cells on the horizon?

It was also a little breezy and so we put on our sweatshirts and sat near the Jeep.

We enjoyed our dinner.

I am still trying to get a good picture of this elusive little sandpiper!

This evening, we drove into town to the grocery store, then we found another beach access ramp and drove on sandy roads all the way to Buxton and the Hatteras Lighthouse.
