Before We Head Out...

A few of us started our day with a beach run and a view of the sun fighting through the altrostratus clouds to bless us with another beautiful day.

This morning, we visited the Oak Island lighthouse before we got on the road.


Fun Fact: There are 131 steps to the top of the lighthouse. The lighthouse is 169ft. above sea level and the walls are only eight inches thick!

Addition to yesterday's post, when we were on the beach, we saw two dolphins co-mother a calf. "Auntie" dolphins (male or female) will assist a new mother dolphin and her calf...the "auntie" dolphin is the only one the mother dolphin will allow around her new calf.

We also witnessed a loggerhead sea turtle nest on the beach. It was an amazing sight to see.

We are now on the road to Charlotte and should arrive to TES right at dismissal time. See you soon!
