Wrightsville Beach

Yesterday we had a lazy start, weighing anchor after 0930, knowing we only had 20 miles to get to Wrightsville Beach. We also had two bridge openings to deal with, both of which opened on the hour, restricting our speed. Lots of dolphins played around our boat during the morning which mesmerized the girls. Scouty is now going to be a dolphin for Halloween. Once we arrived in Wrightsville, the girls went to the beach and Ted changed the engine oil. It was nice to have an afternoon for playing, rather than travel, and the girls clearly needed a little time to stretch their legs. It worked! Scouty could barely keep her eyes open at dinner, and she fell asleep on page 2 of their bedtime book.
Thank goodness for the girls' creativity! 
These dolphins played near our boat for several minutes.  
We passed mile 270 of the ICW today.

Ted got creative with the spinnaker pole today in order to make things a little more comfy.
