Day 7
Hiked
8 miles
We
woke and had a great beach walk. It was sunny and beautiful. There
were scores of little Sanderlings, normally quite skittish, but not
shy here:
We
took the motorcycle out for the ride to the Wright Brother National
Monument in Kill Devil Hills (not Kitty Hawk as the history books
suggest).
It was
a dedication to them and to aviation history. There were replicas of
the 1902 Glider, the 1903 Flyer, the “camp” they lived in through
the experiments and the four boulders representing the first four
flights. Along with the imposing Wright Brothers monument, it is a
beautiful place to visit:
We were lured in to a couple of T-shirt stores (50% Off; 75% Off) then headed back to camp and walked the beach yet again:
Here's
the view from the bike (another Wright Brothers monument):

the view from my chair:
