Virtual Vacations

As I have mentioned in my previous post I joined the Virtual Vacation Knitters Swap and I decided it was high time that I got with the "program" and take y'all on some vacations!! I haven't been on a vacation yet this summer but I did make a couple of trips to Nagshead North Carolina in the off season. So grab a comfy chair and come along with me as I remember some good times in pictures.

What is most important in a Knitters Virtual Vacation??!! Why the knitting of course and when you go to the Outer Banks there is a really great LYS. So great in fact we usually head there first thing. Knitting Addiction is a lovely shop with great yarns and an equally great owner and staff



Some shots of the shop





No trip to the beach is complete without some water scenes, that hopefully include boats. We found a quiet harbor on the island of Manteo. Also the home to another lovely LYS Fine Yarns at Kimbeeba







And of course all this "tooling around" looking at fine yarns and boats leaves one a bit hungry. We had a great meal at Mama Kwan's. I had one of the best meals I have ever had there. I hope to get back there soon.



Before we leave the Outer Banks tonight I leave you with some "beach" pictures of sorts keeping in mind it was a mite bit chilly when I was there












And now...is it real or not????? You be the judge.
