The photo that I entered was one I took at the Otter Banks in North Carolina. From Cape Hatteras, we had taken the ferry ( about 40 minutes) to Ocracoke Island. This was another first for me, as I had never been on a vehicle carring ferry.
Ocracoke Island is where Blackbeard once roamed, is a popular place for beach vacations. It gets pretty busy on weekends but durning the week it's the perfect getaway.
Now if you want a few things to do there's outstanding fishing, great little specialty shops, restaurants gallore, a birdwatchers paradise, shelling, and a four-wheel drive on the beach. And there is always a nap on the beach.
What you will not find on the Island is a movie house, stripmall or fast food. If you get the chance to visit Ocracoke Island do it. It is a must-see, providing a step back in time to a fishing village of yesterday. We'll be going back again.
