We planned to visit a couple of Museums today, the Graveyard of the Atlantic on the Outer Banks and Wright Brothers Memorial to Kitty Hawk, a total of 280 miles to travel.
The Graveyard though open for over 8 years was very disappointing, we spent no more than 20 minutes in the Museum, they are clearly still building the Museum, though the Building is impressive, and certainly very large, the content was not. So having viewed all that it had to offer, we set off to Drive to the Wright Brother Memorial. Lucky we didn't spend too long at the first Museum as the last tour was 4pm, which we arrived just in time for. We then walked up to the top of the Hill and viewed the Memorial. An impressive Museum, and amazing to think, first flight started on that very site.
Finally we drove into Chesapeake, and to our Hotel for the next two nights. Tomorrow we plan to visit Virginia Beach.
