Roanoke Island, NC


Elizabethan Gardens on Roanoke Island, NC

Today we took the opportunity to take a delivery for our friend, Angela to Washington, NC.  Then we drove to Manteo, NC to check out The Lost Colony. I have been fascinated with the story of this colony since I was a small child and came across it in some of my reading. The park is under a lot of construction right now but the Elizabethan Gardens are lovely. We enjoyed lunch in Manteo near the waterfront.  The Hubbard squash bisque was wonderful. As we contemplated the 3 hour drive back, Laton suggested we get a hotel and explore the rest of the Outer Banks tomorrow.  What a wonderful idea!
