Wednesday started out pretty cloudy and still too windy for kayaking, so we made it our day of field trips. First trip: the Wright Brothers Memorial in Kitty Hawk.
Walked the steep climb to the memorial tower...where I found this inscribed quote:
"Achieved by dauntless resolution and unconquerable faith".
pretty good mission statement.
a nice view from the top.
This was just a statue of the original, but still fun to climb on, as you'll see....
oh and meet my buddy here...
wow! what an amazing dancer you are, sir!!!
AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! Please don't crush my head!!!!!!
(I am so terribly sorry, dear children, but your crazy mother
just cannot help embarassing you by posing for all these silly pictures!!!)
another cool quote: "I got more thrill out of flying before I had ever been in the air at all - while lying in bed thinking how exciting it would be to fly."
hmmm, i think i can relate to this guy. a dreamer.
Next trip: across a bridge to Manteo, to the NC Aquarium there. Really nice, remodeled since the last time I've been there.
heeeeere, fishy fishy fishy!!!!!
"but grandmother!!! what big TEETH you have!!!!!"
And that is all for Wednesday's activities, the updated story of our happy all-American family vacation.
more later.
oh and i may post a vine now and then and I have a couple videos on youtube which i'll try to share here later on. bye!!
