Last Day of Hols

Today was bitter sweet. It was our last full day on the Outer Banks so one we wanted to enjoy, but losing Frank last night left both me and Craig with a heavy heart all day (see next post) and even in the best moments of the day, I had a lump in my throat.

So today we went back to Kitty Hawk to re-visit the Wright Brothers Memorial and our Jack took his fishing net and went fishing for crabs and tiddlers. Tonight we went to Corolla Beach and took a Jeep tour to see the wild Spanish Colonial horses and to 4WD over the dunes ..



A little fox we saw, and we saw Pelicans and Egrets galore. I just remembered that we ate lunch at the Black Pelican Cafe that used to be an old Coast Guard building and then was used as a Western Union place in the 1900's, so was the place where Wilbur & Orville sent their telegram to the world about their first flight. How great is that. We've been there.
