Vacation Day 16

Today Jeremiah was feeling a little better. We've been eating our complimentary breakfast at a wonderful restaurant nearby. Today was our first day eating at our hotel's restaurant. This time of year it's only open a few days. It was exactly what I figured a complimentary breakfast would be. Not good! Jeremiah got milk which wasn't included in our what we were allowed to have. After we ate what we could the lady took our plates. We sat there and waited. We finally asked if we would be getting a check. She said Yes for the milk! Guess how much it was $3.50!!! For a small glass of milk that he finished and had to drink some of my pop because she never asked if he needed a refill. So needless to say we won't be going back....complimentary or not. We all voted to go to our fav little restaurant instead. I forgot to say that yesterday the lady who owns the restaurant gave my mom this awesome lighthouse poster cause she knew mom liked lighthouses. She also gave Jeremiah a limited edition shirt. So she definitely not only earned our business cause the delicious food but the great service and kindness.

After breakfast we headed back down to Cape Hatteras. We wanted to go to the Graveyard of the Atlantic a shipwreck museum. It's free but we donated some money cause it was very interesting. The neatest part is they had a treasure hunt paper for Jeremiah to fill out and it made it really fun to look for the pictures and read the information...
He really enjoyed it a lot and again accidentally learned something haha. After that museum we went to visit Cape Hatteras lighthouse...
We had seen it from the road but this time we got close. This one is very pretty. The wind was still roaring today which made the waves beautiful! We stopped along the road and watched countless windsurfers and kite surfers. It was so neat to see...
Tonight we had dinner at a brewery and I felt bad and really wished Fred was there. He would have loved to taste the local brews. Yet another wonderful day.
