Oak Island: Day 4

We had to leave Oak Island today, but not before Mom saw a beautiful sunrise with her coffee on the beach, another dip in the ocean, a morning of canoeing in the bay, and a trip to Southport for lunch! We had such a busy trip, but had so much fun!

Thanks for an awesome trip Mom and Aunt Sara! We can’t wait to head to the Outer Banks next and show off our boogie boarding skills to Nannie & Grandpa!

Oak Island: Day 3

Today was a super busy day with a ferry ride over to enjoy the morning at Fort Fisher aquarium, a trip out to lunch, a quick stop for ice cream, and some more swimming at the ocean!
