Well, it's Wednesday and we have had some great fun so far. At first, the thought of having 7 people aboard for a week seemed like it would be pretty challenging, but we are having a blast. We decided to spend an extra night in Ocracoke, because it was so nice. We did some shopping, ate skewered shrimp, veggies and banana's off the grill, and saw a Right Whale skull from a 60 footer . Stopped at the lighthouse and got some pictures. swam at the anchorage, played a pirate game called "Morgan's Revenge" and of course Grammy spent lots of quality time with the boys. We saw a beautiful sunset right across the bank from where we were docked (decided to dock after anchoring for the first night) and as always the lighthouse was beautiful at night. We left Ocracoke this morning and headed across to Belhaven and decided to stay at Dowry Creek Marina. Nice place, with a pool and a great view. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good place to stay up here. Anyway, it was almost a 12 hour sail across. Here's a bunch of pictures we took from Ocracoke and along the way. Eating like kings, and soaking every drop of it up!

This was a fire we saw on the way across from Ocracoke to Belhaven.
It was a pretty massive wildfire off Little Porpoise Point.
