The ncl Epic that will start doing cruising in the year of 2010

Dear Family and Friends,

Today we spent the day on a train excursion traveling on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, only 9 miles up the road from our hotel in Cherokee. Lasting 4.5 hours, the trip took us around 60 miles round ...

... but they were closed also! It was only 6:30pm! I asked some police officers if they recommended any restaurant around that was walking distance, so they gave me a name called, "The Whig." Let me say, it was a hidden restaurant and a bit spooky as seen in the pictures below. I walked down and inside and walked out. There were a lot of people in there. It was like a cult or something, but I am pretty sure they were all college students ...

5pm

South of the Border is this rediculous stop on I 95 just south of the South Carolina and North Carolina border. Hence the name. Anyway, they have huge dinasour statues, gift shops, and terrible food. I have been wanting to check it out all summer and I'm stoked I finally did. I bought a bag some nic nacs and a tank top. Tyler got a blanket.

We didn't take any pictures. It just wasn't that kind of a visit.

... up at this very awesome bar with fish nets and stuffed fish on the walls called The Salty Nut.  Thpogh the name didn't match the decor, it seemed like a fun place. 

After a beer or two Ty and I realized that every guy in the bar had tan cacky shorts.  Tyler had frayed cargo shorts and I was wearing jean shorts.  We aparently didn't recieve the memo.

We didn't stay out too long.  

... into the Starbucks that is right next door to buy something small so that he can get cash back, and then change a few dollars to quarters. Great plan, unfortunately, the guy at Starbucks tells Joey "no can do."

So we leave our awesome parking space to go drive down the street to Publix and get cash from the ATM.

Finally, Joey comes back with a $10 roll of quarters, we drive back over to the restaurants and ...

Up at the crack of dawn today, and drove through to South Carolina. We stayed with friends from NH that recently moved down south. It was great for Gabi & Heather to see each other: All the girls had fun, and sounds like they are still awake chatting now (12:30 am). They'll be cranky when I get them up at 6:30 to head out!

... I didn't find
that out until this morning, because I went to bed right as soon as
those filthy, mold-infested air mattresses were blown up and covered
with a filthy, mold-infested sleeping bag. I continued to go in and
out of sleep. At one point it began raining really hard and Brenda
eventually left to go out to the van, while our dad took her place on
the mattress. At six in the morning the next day, I woke up. And
here's where we begin...

... about cruising is that keeping to a schedule is hard to do and often proves to be counter productive. We knew that Mike had a weekend commitment and our only shot to have dinner with these great folks was to make it into Windmill by Thursday afternoon. This provided hard to predict. We had pretty much made the decision to stay 'inside' on the trip north from Cumberland Island. It was a tough call as the winds and weather were not ...

... So, we were in bed by 10:00 p.m. That gave us an early start this morning. We were on the road by 8:30 a.m. If we drive straight thru, our ETA would be midnight. However, we will not drive straight thru. With the snow fat home, we will not be able to pull the camper and truck into the driveway. So, we will stop overnight and arrive early afternoon tomorrow. :-)
