Monday - January 14th
Today is the day for the big trip! I'm finally going to my North Carolina teacher seminar in Ocracoke, NC! I'm so excited, I have lived on the Outer Banks my entire life and have never been out to Ocracoke. I've especially never been on a ferry for 2 hours 15 minutes!
I don't know what to expect from this trip. I know whatever it is that I will make the most of it. It seems that the seminar is about keeping teacher in the profession.
I've been on a ferry a few times in my hometown. However, I've never been on quite like this. Some how the open sound and sky made me feel so small. I did a lot of good reading on that boat! I haven't been able to read in a long time. Current Book: 20 Boy Summer
The ride over was beautiful and the weather was perfect for an island adventure! I can't believe I got to go on such a great trip, especially one that improves my teaching skills.
I stayed in the old NC Coast Guard base. Full of history and a very beautiful facility. After dinner of an amazing stuffed beef with broccoli, we met up in the conference room and discussed our plans for the week. We met up in the crow's nest of the building to view the sunset before bed.
