Yep this is what this blog is about
My vacation
And since Ive seen the sun just about a thousand times
Heres a picture of a thousand suns
So basically I was on vacation for 2 weeks
The first week My family and my moms sisters family rented a beach house in Corolla, North Carolina
Then the next week we went to the same familys house and stayed there for about 5 days
Then we went to Boston to visit my aunts house
It was A LOT of travelling
And no we did not take the plane
My brother is a special person
How we keep ourselves busy in the car
We took a fairy while going down there
It takes 2 full days to get there
We passed by Ocean City!
Ive always wanted to go to Ocean City
I always really liked beach towns for some reason
There just really nice
Oceaaann Cityyyyy
We took a really long brigde
Like superrrrrr long
It also went underground
But it wasn't a see-through tunnel
Which would've been so much more awesome
You'd get to see like everything underwater!
When we got there
There was like a double rainbow!
It was soo cool
It was like double rainbow all the way around!
it was awesome!
Ahaha
So this was the house we rented
It was actually the smallest on the whole street
The houses were huge there!
It was pretty crazy
I mean it was still pretty big
We had a big top floor and living room
Which was cool
Heres the view from our house
I like the idea of the pathwork kind of photo
Even though it doesnt look put together properly
I still think it looks cool
Anyways
The beach was like right there
We also had extremely annoying neighbours to our left
They was like 20 plus people living in there!
They were so loud
They never Shut up
Even during the night!
Our house was like a minute away from the Beach, Not even
It was just like miles and miles of beach
The water was also extremely warm
Like you could just run in
There was also these HUGE sand dunes
and you'd have to walk up and down this stairway
The town names of the Outerbanks are the weirdest things ever
There was Kittyhawk, Duck, Kill Devil Hills, Nagshead and Orcacoke
Its pretty funny
Also these towns are all connected
I want a hammock
Yeah... Hes secretly planning to rule the world
We went to a place called the Black Pelican
Which is like super famous on the Outerbanks
Meh it wasn't too special
Apparently the Wright Brothers did their first flight on the Outerbanks or something
I mean they have a whole museum and everything about them
That was taken in the Black Pelican
Look closely!
Theres a tiny see-through crab
They dig like a ton of hole everywhere on the beach
And there like everywhere early in the morning and a night
They also have Jelly fish, Tons of tiny fish, Dophins, ( though I havn't seen any, everyone saw them except for me) Pelicans and Crabs
You have to get up really early in the morning to see the sun rise
Like 5:30 ish
And even then you might not be able to see it properly mostly because of the clouds
But your able to see it so cleary on the ocean!
Ninja dog
Its a poodle!
My aunt is obsessed with poodles
Pelicans!
They go by every morning like this
Poor crab
We went to this lighthouse in Corolla somewhere
It wasnt that great
I wanted to go to the one in Cape Hatteras
But thats on the end of the island
The secret garden
There were these 3 birds fighting with each other
It was pretty funny
We bought fudge at the fudgery!
The stores there are so nice
When we went in
The were these two guys in the back making fudge singing the Fudgerys theme song
It was pretty cool!
We also went at night
Makes it more cooler
We got cookies and cream, Maple nut, Chocolat peanut butter and Chocolat nut
The Maple nut was the best!
And thats not because im canadian!
They had the tiniest movie theatre I've ever been too
They only show 4 movies at a time
And the room is so tiny!
I went to see the Smurfs aha
Thats the entrance to the movie theatre
Those small doors to the left is the movie entrace
Cousin and bro
I loved the shops in Corolla
There all in this kind of Board-walk style
And there these nice little shops that have like a million things in side of them
These also the food line
Where these a bunch of food places, like the Fudgery and its all really nice
Its also funny because like every worker at those shops were from Europe
They were like Russian or Polish
They all had like accents and it was kind of weird
Apparently their shipped from there from their college
More special people
I want those
More special people
Its a jelly fish!
There were TONS of seashells on the beach
Like shit loads
I bought a big box home of them
And more special people
This is what we basicly did half the time there
We played scrabble on my aunts Ipad
Its soo freaking addicting!
We also watched the food network the whole time
Nothing but the food network
Turtlesss
Theres a lake too
Theres cactuses like EVERYWHERE
You`d think there`d be palm trees but noooo
Its only freaking cacti heh
I ended up stepping on them all the time
There was this one day where the waves were huge
You cant see it but the current was so strong
you could`ve swim or do anything
Me and my cousin usually like to go far out in the water
Like at least 100 feet from the shore
No joke
Its so cool out there
Being the farest out
and theres no waves too
Its like completely calm
That day though you couldn`t even get 15 feet from Shore
It was crazy!
Riptides!
Tons of them everywhere!
Fuck yeah Australia
We went to another restaurant
Now this was a good restaurant!
It was like amazing
Way better than The Black Pelican
The ceiling was so cool
I got a veggie burger and it was so good!
We had made veggie burgers while at the house
Guy Fieri`s veggie burgers of course
But this one was way better!
Corolla is also known to have Wild horses
But there in this special preserve at the Islands edge
And you can only get there with a guide
So thats what we did
We took a tour guide at 5:30 am
Early I know but thats the best time to see them!
We were the only people in the tour
Our tour guy was an officer
And almost as soon as we entered we saw horses
It was pretty crazy
They make it sound like its so rare to see the horses
But we saw like 30 of them!
You also had to rent this All terrain Jeep thingy
The one with no doors or anything
Because you seriously cannot take an ordianry car without 4 wheel drive
Its impossible
Theres no roads or anything in that preserve
When we came back to a group of horses
There was a mule with them
It was pretty funny actually
Its random
The mule
Off into the sunset
We got soo close to this one horse!
I dont even think we were allowed to get that close
Our guide says you have to stay 30 feet away from them or your fined 1000 bucks
But we were just in the car going on a path and she was on the side!
You`d think that because this place is so strict there wouldn`t be any house
But there is!
Theres like tons of them
And people just take their cars on the beach
Really we didnt have to go in with a tour guide
But whatever it was still fun
Also the horses get so close to people
They aren`t even scared
There so use to human
They even go under peoples houses
This was the best picture I took
Like in the whole trip
Ahaha this was funny
The birds are just chilling on the horses
Leaving North Carolina
We stopped at this place called Mels Dinner
Its shit
Dont ever go there
My uncle insisted we go there
Bad idea
Altoids are the best thing ever
Ive never even heard of these
I dont think they have them in Canada
But they are so good!
I managed to steal like 5 of them and several packs of gum from my cousins
They have like a year supply of this shit
They have a kitten named Lily
She kind of hated me
ahah
Creeper
These are soo good
There like sorbet inside a fruit!
Amazing
We also went to The musuem of fine arts in Richmond, Virginia
Which is near where they live
It was extremely boring
Not even close to being as good as Montreals
This is cool
Theres dolls and water inside
This is sapposed to be Pocahontas
What
The
Fuck
There were also like 10 exhibitions that were filled with just paintings of horses
JUST HORSES
It was liek fucked up
The artist was some guy with the last name mellon
Ocd much?
Picasoo
Boston wasn`t all that interesting
Just trees and clouds
Also we weren`t in boston
It was a suburb around boston
How is it that in Boston you see like 10 chipmunks everyday
But the only time ive seen one was at Granby Zoo
Which is nowhere near my house
While going home we stopped at this huge Ben and Jerrys Factory place
Its a caterpillar!
There so cute and fluffy!
I remember when I was in elementary at summer camp
We would all try and think these and we would take them home with us
How I keep myself busy in the car
And thats basically it
I mean I took way more pictures that that
Actually exactly 1871
I know im Crazy
But I figured I`d post them some other time later
So all in all I can say I had a really good vacation
I didnt really know what to expect
So I didnt expect much
But wow it was like really good
I loved the beach and Corolla and the whole Outerbanks
Everyone is so nice there
I mean you can leave your door unlocked and leave all your shit on the beach
No one steals anything
I mean everyone does it
Its just really different and nice
Its a very secluded and quiet place
and I like that
Especially at night
The beach at night is something else
Theres really no light pollution at all like there is in Montreal
Its pitch black
All You can hear is the waves
All you can see is the lanterns people carry with them
Its like a different place
and people will throw fireworks
You always hear them
And you can atually see the stars
One night you could even see the milky way
Its different from Montreal
