Onto Nag's Head and Beyond

Day 12:  After finishing up on Monday with beaching it, looking for shells, and just veggin' out, we left Tuesday to head north toward Nag's Head.
We checked out the historical "Lost Colony" on Roanoke Island which is several miles west of Nag's Head.  The museum was under renovation as was the fort, but we did find it interesting.







  Of course we shopped for souvenirs for the kids, and then drove north into Kill Devils Hill.  There we toured the famous site of Orville and Wilbur Wright's first flight at Kitty Hawk.  Impressive museum and monument.  Late afternoon on Tuesday we decided to leave the islands of the Outer Banks and head west for home.  Weathermen are predicting huge rainfall amounts for the next three days due to a tropical depression moving onto the Carolinas.  We should be home by the weekend.
