This morning we got up and had breakfast on the beach. For some reason I just love doing that. The waves were crashing in, sun shining, and all was lovely. After that, we moved to a different location almost next to where we were. We left the KOA and came to Camp Hatteras. We like it a little better for very minute reasons: it is a teensy bit cheaper, they have concrete pads for your vehicles, the dune is slightly lower and less soft sand to go through to go to beach, and there aren't as many pear cactus plants to get in the dogs' feet.
We spent another perfect day at the beach then went out for our first and only dinner out. We went to a little hole in the wall place called Uncle Pauly's. The food was good and when we left, we went out back and watched an amazing sunset, something that this place is famous for. The sun sets over the Pamlico Sound and it is truly amazing. We stopped at the Rodanthe fishing pier and checked out the folks luck...or lack of it. Didn't see much fishing action but the atmosphere is always fun at a pier.
We headed to the beach with coffee (and a touch of Baileys in mine) and sat close to a couple bonfires that weren't ours but we got to enjoy the smell and flames glowing in the dark. We then took the dogs for a long walk around the park trying to wear little Sparkle out. She bugged Lucky last night and we ended up putting her in bed with us, something I'd rather avoid! But Lucky needed his sleep so we gaqve him a break. Hopefully she will be so tired tonight that she'll leave everyone alone!
