We had a wonderful-- though unfortunately abridged-- vacation down at the Outer Banks of North Carolina at the end of August. Hurricane Irene came through there a couple days before we were scheduled to go down, and OBX was evacuated. We were supposed to go down on the Saturday, but weren't able to get there until the Tuesday because of some of the damage done, specifically to the one and only road up to the town where we were staying. But in the end, we did get there and had 3 and half days of fun at the beach with our friends.
Noah LOVED the beach. He really loved playing in the waves, but also enjoyed digging in the sand with his friends. The hurricane left the surf pretty rough, so he couldn't really go swimming in the ocean, but that was fine.
We plan on trying to do an OBX trip every summer, at least while the kids are young, because it's such a nice and easy vacation. It was great to go with friends. Noah loved sharing a room with Greydon-- that might have been the highlight for him, actually.
