Oh, how that salty air wreaks havic on my hair and makes it uncontrollable.
Oh, how the ocean draws seagulls to land to sqwack and bother us during our picnic.
Oh, how the ocean winds are so strong that we had to use Malachi as a holder for our blanket during our picnic lunch.
Oh, how the outerbanks water is so crystal clear and shallow.
Oh, how the waves are so choppy and make for a back-breaking ride over to Harker's Island to see Cape Lookout.
Ok. That's enough of that. We did thoroughly enjoy our time at the beach. We first had a picnic lunch on the coast before we took the "ferry" (many passenger boat) out to Harker's Island to see the lighthouse, Cape Lookout. The sand on Harker's Island was so white (and hot). The water was a brilliant blue with few waves. We didn't spend as much time there; because we just didn't know what there was to do out there. We are already planning another trip out there sometime to do some of the things that we felt we missed out on. Malachi actually fell asleep on the bumpy ride over to the island, since he wouldn't nap in the car like we would have liked.
After leaving the island, we drove back to Atlantic Beach to get Malachi to swim/play in the ocean water. A storm was coming, and the water was getting cold. Malachi fell asleep in the car and was very cranky and upset the we awkened him to see some more water and get wet.
