Wrightsville Beach

While we were in the Wilmington area visiting the battleship, our family decided to spend the night at nearby Wrightsville Beach.  What a beautiful beach!!!   The above picture was of the sunrise.
  I just don't know of much in life that is more beautiful than 
the North Carolina Coast...

 Found a seafood restaurant where Tim and I satisfied our "sea tooth:" it's like a sweet tooth, but for seafood.    
Can you guess whose meal was whose?  
(Hint: I'm the foodie in this marriage.)

Above: Crab cakes with Old Bay aioli sauce, garlic-sauted spinach, and Gorganzola-smashed potatoes.
Below: The Pick-Two fry basket. :D

This was our family's first time ever being at the beach in a non-summer month such as November.  The sun shone just as brightly, but the air and the water were a bit chilly.  So what do you do when you can't boogie-board or play in the water?  If you're the kids, you draw pictures and play in the sand.  Below is Christopher's version of Mickey Mouse.
 And if you're a grown-up, you enjoy taking a long walk on a beach that even in the afternoon is quiet and uncrowded.  NICE!
