my wife and i will be visiting the obx in October 2023. this will be my first visit since 1977 and this will be my wife's first visit, cant wait to get there
We’ve lived on the east coast of NC for almost 20 years and finally made it to the south end of OBX for a weekend. It was great and can’t wait to go back for longer than a weekend.
Family had a cottage in Nags Head in the early 80’s my childhood. We would spen time there during summer vacations. Fondest childhood memories are from their. Hatteras beach fishing. All night pier fishing. Climbing Jockeys Ridge, etc.. We did it all.
My visit to the Wright brothers memorial was phenomenal. What a incredible part of our American history. I am blessed to have experienced visiting the museum and the memorial site. I will never forget it. This is a must see site for all tourist and residents.
To everyone who is reading this, you’re beautiful and an amazing person. Please exercise frequently and eat more fruits/veggies. I wish you all good health, great success, and everlasting happiness!!!!!!!!
We are there now! Haven’t had a chance to go explore yet - that’s tomorrow & the next day! But the beach just on the other side of the dunes from us was lovely today. Found a shark egg case and have had two awesome sunsets!
Nicely done! We live on the Outer Banks! However, a few factual corrections for your viewers: "Corolla" is pronounced "Curr-allah", Bodie Island (Light House) is pronounced "Body" Island. Manteo, the town on Roanoke Island is pronounced "Manny-oh". It's "Jockey's Ridge"" state park. And Orville and Wilbur Wright visited here many times to achieve first flight, but they didn't live here, not long term. They had to bring anything they needed over by barge from the mainland. To see wild horses, better head right on up to Corolla adn Corova, the part where you have to drive on the beach because the road ends there. You're not going to see any/many wild mustangs anywhere else on the OBX proper. :)
Busted! An out-of-town Northerner trying his best to share about your slice of heaven there! We hope you continue to enjoy what you have there (even if we mispronounced it)! 😉❤️ Thanks for sharing the corrections to help other viewers of the video!
Lost Colony, not Last Colony. Manteo is phonetically spelled in English of a Native American person’s name, not as the Spanish would have pronounced it (Matteo for example).

It's not boring. There are zillions of things to do. A great many visitors, though, prefer to do nothing but sit on the deck, have adult beverages and lay or walk on the beach. That's heaven to many. Nice thing is you can do this vacation any way you like!
yep. it very expensive and worse if you live and work there as there is nothing you can rent on minimum wages so you have to drive 50 miles from where you can afford to live on a average salary of 20k per year. This is a place mostly for tourist that can afford to rent a beachfront 6 bedroom house for 6k per week plus expenses..

He pronounced, "The Lost Colony" as "The Last Colony." That's the one thing about us locals, we will call you out on your mispronunciations... 😂

@@minelayer26 thank you

The Last Colony?
We are going on vacation there tomorrow, and I’m kind of nervous because it seems so boring. 😩
How was it???
How was your vacation, Nikki Brown? Hope you had fun and were able to relax!

Usually if it seems boring it’s cause your naturally kind of boring and don’t know how to make something fun. Or maybe outdoors stuff isn’t your thing
You would probably like myrtle beach more of a scene for the yuppies
I wanna go so bad
And don't forget to mention very expensive

The first rule of the OBX is not to talk about the OBX.. the second rule is..
Ha! Oops! Our bad! 🤣 Enjoy your secret slice of heaven!
man you slaughtered those names... it's pronounced Body not bow-d and Car- ra- la not core- oh- la, Man- tee- oh not man tay oh... but nice video
Ha. Sorry. Can I blame my Midwestern accent? 😉 Thanks for the compliment and the assistance.
Wrong about Corolla
Manteo man te o not man tayo
