Friday -- OBX and a brief stop home in VB

We started our day in Hatteras. After a stop for coffee at the Dancing Turtle, we headed north along Route 12. We had the best lunch at a little restaurant called Top Dog Cafe in Waves, NC. We shared a bacon and blue cheese burger and a cajun mahi sandwich... a 9.8!
What appears to be another beachside restaurant turned out to be our best meal on the Outer Banks of NC. Along with the top notch food, the attention given by the lone wait staff, Catfish to all of our tables was extraordinary. The burger, even though cooked through, was moist and flavorful. The mahi-mahi was butter soft with a generous tomato slice and a side of french fries that came right out of the fryer. This is what beach food should be. The last touch was a reserved space for local law enforcement and EMS personal to have their meals. If you do get over to this part of the Outer Banks, we do highly recommend this place.

We enjoyed the beach air, passed the house from the movie Nights in Rodanthe, and stopped to walk on the beach near Kitty Hawk.

Tonight we're at home in Virginia Beach and will be leaving for Richmond tomorrow for the last leg of our trip.
