The Outer Banks of North Carolina

We are finally back...although the trip home took about as long as the trip itself thanks to Tropical Storm Hannah, American Airlines and a broken down plane...but we're home! This was our first vacation without Miss Em...and actually in about 3 years! We loved every part of The Outer Banks and recommend it for couples, families and anyone else in between. Clean and private beaches, beautiful weather, friendly locals, tonz of seafood (I think I have gills now we ate so much) and some of the best scenery around - the lighthouses are always spectacular and the butterfly garden at the Elizabethan Gardens is something to behold! Below are just a couple of my favorite photographs...but click HERE to see the rest of The Outer Banks!
