For @Ocean Boy History of the Oak Island Light house which can be seen from Southport. https://www.oakislandlighthouse.org/ Keep watching this video and you will get a good look of the light house. https://surfchex.com/sppssl.php There is some beautiful sunsets on this site too, maybe not tonight though, pretty cloudy down here tonight, but save the link and try later in the summer months. -
None at all, all us were free to roam. 🙂

Just got back from our 2nd cruise in the last 3 days............Happy times !!😁😎 We only had about 15 cars onboard, usually holds 30 to 40 cars. Wake View, no balcony 😞 This another ferry with cars on it goin going the opposite way. Rusty Barge anchored out in the harbor. This is where our ferry docks and we drive off the ferry. Could not get a closer shot because they made us get back into our cars so we were ready to drive off asap!!

Hope your insurance comes through for you and you get it refunded without having to jump through hoops.

Is that a change as to what Royal told you earlier about getting a refund for the missed portion of the rest of the cruise?

Dinner last night at Southport Gourmet and Sushi Bar. We shared an Entree and a Sushi Roll. Also an interesting house build here as the builder built the house around this very old tree in their front yard. Zoom in to the 2 pictures and you can see how the roof edge is built around the very large tree limb.

@ashlynn1021 What are temperatures like for touring around in a golf cart at this time of the year in Rome?

Seems like reward days down here are adding up faster then back home though. Still here 8 more days to go.

Looks like Leland is just outside of Wilmington, NC and really has shown a lot of growth in the last 10 years, population has doubled in that time span. We are kind of looking for something more laid backed, thought Southport was that place but there is a lot of growth happening there to even in the last 3 years that we have been going there. Seems nothing can hide from expanding can it?

Next cruise we are taking while here in Southport, NC we will be taking our car 🙂 🙂 . We are going to taking the Fort Fisher Ferry from Southport to Fort Fisher. We are going to the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher while there. Then we will travel thru the island to Kure Beach, Wilmington Beach, Carolina Beach, Sea Breeze, Wrightsville Beach, Top Sail Beach, Surf City. Cost is $7.00 per car one way. We will be driving back home, only taking the ferry the one way. Takes about 25 minutes to get there by ferry, if going by land to the aquarium ir would be an hour and 15 minute drive. There was one guy going over with his Golf Cart

I'm in luck, I think this is the yacht and it's for sale, just up the coast from Southport, NC in Wilmington, NC. about 30 miles from here. https://www.yachtworld.com/yacht/2024-absolute-navetta-68-9069107/ ....Lottery purchase should we hit the Power Ball or Mega Million.... Might be fate it has a Volvo 2000 hp engine, The Volvo Truck Plant where all the Mack trucks in North America are made in Virginia at Dublin, Va is about 10 miles from our house. https://www.volvogroup.com/en/about-us/organization/our-production-facilities/new-river-valley-plant.html I feel real good about this now 🙂

That is where crab fries started, In Philadelphia Eagles game, there was a Chickies and Pete's inside Veterans Stadium where the Eagles played. History of Crabfries. At the onset of Chickie's & Pete's® in 1977, crabs were only served in the summer. Once the summer was over Pete needed something to do with all the leftover seasonings. So, he started experimenting with different combinations on french fries.

Planes fly the same way whether going to a land vacation or to a cruise port. No worries there. 🙂

Wonder if this latest fix will at least get then to their next port of call?

After taking 2 to 3 cruises a year for many , many years just don't have the interest in cruising that much anymore. So I guess we are going the opposite way as far as cruising a lot first and now want to do more land vacations.
