OUTER BANKS, NORTH CAROLINA

Ben and I had such an amazing time in Outer Banks, North Carolina. It was such a much needed break from the everyday hustle and bustle of work, car trouble, bills, and getting ready for the big move. We stayed at the Quality Inn Carolina Front and it was really nice. They served waffles and biscuits every morning. YUM! We spent everyday on the beach and by the pool. On Monday we went jet skiing! It was so much fun! We had never been jet skiing and it was such an experience. By Wednesday we were terribly sun burned but it thunder stormed on Wednesday morning and the humidity was really high so we took advantage of the poor weather and explored the banks by going the the pier and going shopping in the little beach shops. If you ever make it out to The Outer Banks you MUST go to the following restaurants: High Cotton BBQ, Outer Banks Brewery, and Port O Calls. High Cotton BBQ is delicious and the cheapest we ate while on vacation. Outer Banks Brewery brews their own beer in the restaurant but it is a little expensive. Port O Calls is an interesting restaurant that everyone on the banks needs to try once. The decor is so unique with couches made of bull horns and cow hide and Marilyn Monroe photos everywhere! it was great in there. the food was just average though. and in case you wont make it to the beach this year, here are some pictures to tide you over!




UNTIL NEXT TIME,
