We had coffee, had our fill of internet, took showers and headed in to town. We visited with Kim and Steve for a while and then went out for lunch. I don't believe any work was done today-yeah! After lunch, the boys went to the grocery store to pick up a few things and we chatted for a while longer and then went back to the boat. There were some rain showers and thunder in the distance, but no big storms here.
When we got back to the boat we read, and took naps and relaxed. We plan to head out early in the morning to head for the dreaded Alligator-Pungo Canal. We considered the Ocracoke/Roanoke route because it's more fun, but with winds from the north coming up, it seemed like a bad plan.
The area of North Carolina we are heading for has notoriously bad cell phone coverage, as well as lots of swamp land, so we may be out of touch for a few days.
