Okay, so now I am offically "home" home, where my family lives in south Florida. After a couple of days in St. Augustine, I tried to remember how to surf and went into the old town for food and fun. Then it was off to North Carolina.
The twelve hour drive was worth it to be able to stay in this GORGEOUS house: God's Promise. It has 6 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms and is three stories high. The boardwalk that is right next to the house leads straight to the beach.
With all its open windows and light and spacious floor planning, it was certainly a place to let the creative juices flow.
But needless to say, I got my tan on instead :)
Not many people know that there is a little island off of North Carolina...crap I sure didn't know that, but this place is located right next to Ocracoke and can be taken by road or the ferry, what ever floats your boat (literally.) There's not much there, just a few local shops here and there, but the architect and housing is astoundingly beautiful.
Though here's something that you might not be used to: the sand squeaks. Yes, I don't know what it is, but when you're walking on the beach and your foot rubs against the sand, it sounds like sneakers on a basketball court. It was very entertaining.
