Wordless Wednesday: Bald Head Island

Welcome to Wordless Wednesday.  This one will actually have words, because I want to tell you about our trip. 

Friday we left the kids with my parents and spend a night away at Bald Head Island, NC.  This was our first getaway in 3 years!

As you can probably tell from the pictures, it was really cold and overcast while we were there.  We stayed at a bed and breakfast for the first time ever.  It was so nice.  Since it was off season, it wasn’t too expensive. 

There are very few cars on the island (maybe 10).  Everyone rides around in golf carts.  The b&b we stayed at gave us a cart to use so that we could explore the island.

Here is a view of the chapel from the top of the lighthouse.  It is beautiful from the top, but it certainly was a steep climb.

This is the oceanside part of the island.  This is another view from the top of the lighthouse.

Another picture of the beach.

It took a while to load all of the pics and size them down for the website.  I hope to post more next week.  :)

    Char @ Weary Parent (another b5 blog) did the header. She did a great job.

    If you’re looking for someone though, my friend Revka does design work. She did my other blog for me. You can see it here. http://balanceindiet.com

    Here is her site:

    Her prices are really reasonable.
