Friend Trip To OBX

When our beach trip to Bald Head Island was a wash, Katie suggested we take a re-do trip to her parents’ home in Corolla on the Outer Banks. While we knew the water would be too cold for swimming this time of year, we were hoping for sunny skies so we could at least do several walks on the beach. Half of the long weekend was stormy, but we did get some great sunny beach walks!

Road Trip Lunch

We got up on a Thursday and drove the fours hours to the coast. We stopped at the NC Coast Grill & Bar for lunch before heading to the house.

Beers & Shrimp Chowder!

Beach Walk

The weather was pretty cloudy and very windy, but we took a short walk before the rain started.

Most of our time was spent on this giant couch reading, playing games like Rummikub and the Wordle Party Game (great Christmas gift for anyone who loves NYT games!), and of course doing the NYT games over coffee every morning. We also watched the movie ‘Challengers’ and I do not recommend. It was bad! I love that we are such a chill relaxed group just happy lounging!

Simple Fish Tacos

On Thursday night, we made tacos with fresh mahi mahi. Simple, but we didn’t have the effort to make them fancy! The fish was the star.

Breakfast

Quesadillas / Salad / Sun Chips

(hoping for the sun to emerge!)

Beach Walk #2

Once the rain let up, we ventured out for beach walk two!

Low Country Boil

For our second night, we made a low country boil! This meal is so easy and such a crowd pleaser.

Chef Sean’s Pancakes

Sean made us Kodiak pancakes on Saturday morning.

And the sun was out!!

Beach Walk #3

We did a really long walk this day soaking up the breezes!

Formal Night

We had some laughs at formal night after being in joggers for two days. Everyone dressed up to head out to dinner!

Dinner at North Banks

We had dinner at North Banks which had great service and great food. We enjoyed drinks at the bar while we waited for a table, and the bartender gave us each an oyster!
