We made two stops along the way today. We stopped in Norfolk, VA to visit Nauticus, a naval museum and science center. We found out the mermaid is the symbol of Virginia. The girls loved the different painted mermaids. We enjoyed trying to steer the simulated ships and shoot down attacking airplanes at Nauticus. We walked on the USS Wisconsin. It was fun to hear about the history of the ship from the retired Navy volunteers.
Next we head for Virginia Beach. It was very crowded but the beach was nice. We decided not to stay too long as we wanted to get to NC. We stopped for dinner in a town called Kill Devil Hills. The seafood buffet was excellent. We got a room in town right on the beach. We went down to the beach tonight and want to get up to see the sunrise so I will say goodnight. Hope to be in Florida in a couple of days.
Kurt, you have never looked so good!?
