Today we trekked out to Ocracoke Island. It’s an hours drive from Nags Head in the Outer Banks plus a one hour ferry ride. We had so much fun and made some wonderful memories. We were hoping to score some really amazing shells. We found some, but it wasn’t at all what we’d hoped for even at low tide. But! We did see a sign for shelling tours out to an island and booked that for later this week! So excited!
Over Christmas I asked my mom if there was anywhere on her bucket list that she had never been, but had always wanted to go. She immediately answered “Outer Banks, North Carolina” without giving it a thought. I immediately said, “let’s do it!” So we started planning this stop and she flew in to meet us here. We were here less than 30 minutes before we ventured out to the beach in search of shells. We found a few keepers and I loved all the purple pieces so much. I’m so happy to spend the next 8 days exploring with my favorite people! Tomorrow we are taking a ferry out to Ocracoke Island!

Follow along as we stay at Sunshine Key while RVing the Florida Keys. We visit Bahia Honda State Park, the southernmost point in the US and Fort Zachary.
We had a really simple Easter. We stayed home, kids played outside with a campground full of kiddos, we cooked a big dinner and Jason did a deep clean on both of our AC units on top of the RV. Being in a state park, it was FULL for the holiday weekend and that meant Jonah found a pack of 8 year old-ish boys to run with. So many great kids and families here!
Zachary and Jude spent hours in the hammocks today, most of it snuggling and playing with the Rubik’s cube. They are just the sweetest together. Also, Z was in heaven with a special treat today. It’s hard to have a sweet tooth when you live in a family full of people who love Whole 30!
