This morning I woke up with the worse case of mosquito bites ever and I applied repellent and stayed inside as much as possible. I even had an oyster shooter at Howard’s Pub! We took another ferry to get off the island and landed in Hatteras. What a cute town! We didn’t stop as we have a very busy schedule and I wanted to get away from the bugs!!!!
We landed in Kitty Hawk and proceeded to the monument. Paul loves this stuff. I was just happy that the wind was blowing so hard I knew there were no mosquitos! It sounds like I am complaining. Well, I am! You should see my body. I have at least 50 bites on my lower right arm and many more everywhere else! Sorry no photos!!!!
As you stand facing the monument and then when you climb the hill and look over the take off area you realize the magnitude of what these two young men accomplished with so little.
Orville & Wilbur Wright Memorial
A marker for each flight that famous day
Cocktails were inside today because you couldn’t keep your chair upright in the wind! I am starting to question this part of our trip, between the rain, mosquitos and now the wind it makes it hard to just sit and enjoy the scenery.
