Nags Head, Outer Banks, North Sarah Fogartya Nov 29th to Dec 3rd ,2014

This is a short trip report on our impromptu vacation to Nags Head, North Sarah Fogartya.. The weather was perfect and there were no crowds of people and traffic to deal with.


My Tripadvisor review: Hubby and I enjoyed our 4 night stay at the Comfort Inn on the beach.. The front desk staff was very helpful and nice. The free breakfast was great, many choices to pick from.. The location on the beach was wonderful to see the sunrises and we saw some dolphins swimming by..Baked cookies in the evening, were a nice treat. 




Bodie Lighthouse in the Outer Banks. A great place not only to see the lighthouse but if you like birds it was an awesome spot..


Some of the swans and winter ducks seen at the Bodie Lighthouse.

Cape Hatteras Lighthouse..


We saw lots of beautiful sunrises and sunsets..Dinners were at local restaurants such as Sam & Omie's for seafood..and the Outer Banks Brewing Station for another evening of dining..And one night was at a local pizza place..

For this weeks Scenic Sunday I have some shots of the Lighthouses we visited during our trip to the Outer Banks.

We visited three different lighthouses, they were Bodie Island which was under renovation, Cape Hatteras and last was the Currituck.  I love seeing all the different lighthouses and I can add three my to more collection.
