Outer Banks Weekend

For Halloween we headed to the Outer Banks for the weekend. We kept looking at our schedule and realized this was one of the last weekends we had before it gets really crazy around here. We had always talked about how we really wanted to go to the Outer Banks because you can't live in NC and not go there. We stayed in Kitty Hawk across the street from the Wright Brothers Memorial. Since it was the off season out hotel was cheap, we were right on the beach, and there were no crowds.

It was such a nice little weekend getaway. We relaxed, ate great food, explored some sites. It was a much needed break from our schedule in Raleigh.  One of the highlights was the weather. We kept getting coastal flooding warnings and high wind warnings on our cell phones all night long. It made it exciting to watch the huge waves and the wind was crazy! We woke up the next morning to garbage cans and exit signs all over the place. It was a little scary but really fun. Overall, it was a great weekend and it was fun to spend it with Andrew.
