August 4, 2011

Still in Hatteras.  The weather forecast for today was 15 to 25 mile/hour winds, so decided to wait. 

This is a picture of some homes on the Outer Banks.



We of course went to the beach.  A short walk from the boat.  This is Cona shelling on the beach of the Outer Banks.



The sun set looking over Pemplico Sound from Miss Ellen.



We ate several time at the restaurant at the dock.  Fabulous.  This is Cona in front of the biggest plate of sea food we have ever seen.  This is Africa cab legs, mussels, clams, shrimp, corn and potato's.  We couldn't eat it at and took a box of shrimp for lunch the next day. 



Rudy has gotten so much absorbed with the pirates of this area he's turning into one.



Picture of Cona with the owner of  the restaurant, Stavros.  We got to be pretty good friends.  He is Greek and came over to America 14 months ago.  Spoke no English but now has a  very good command of the English.  Married the Chief Isac.  He bought the building and  completely redecorated the building himself.  I have included a few pictures of the inside and will show more on my next blog.  A very lively feeling and a very comfortable place to eat.  He did a terrific job on the decor, and has only been open 3 months.  We have had  the best meals so far.  Stavros and Isac were very gracious host and have a great restaurant that Cona and I highly recommend.  To tell how great Stavros was, he even fixed us a lunch to take with us for our trip  the next day.  Isac made a cheese cake our last evening which just came out of the  oven.  It was the best we have ever had. 

We fell in love with Stavros and wish he and Isac the best and hope to meet up with them again.

Hope to leave in the morning for Manteo, NC.
