Lauren's Trip to Shakelford Banks: Sun, Oct 4

We took the ferry to Beaufort and met Will (http://www.offshorerafting.com/) for a trip out to Shakleford Banks on his high speed RHIB.  Lauren is almost ready to pass on marrying her dad and be Will's wife since he has 8 boats and a convertible.

Almost immediately we got to see and play with dolphins.  They seem to like the Beach Boys (with loud bass)!  They were so close to the boat at times that we felt like we could reach out and touch them.  There were several adults and at least one baby.

Then we saw wild ponies on the beach.  So much amazing wild life.

Then on to "Lauren's Island"

Finding sponges

So much to see.
