10/12/15 & 10/13/15 Oriental Inn and Marina (NC)

We spent two nights here due to windy conditions and small craft advisories.  This proved to be another great spot to stop.  The marina had very nice amenities....great shower rooms with towels, soap, shampoo, a tiki bar, and nice grounds.

We borrowed bikes at Oriental Provisions and rode a mile to the Walmart Express and restocked our pantries.

  There is a good coffee shop near the marina (The Bean).  Ann and I fell in love with Marsha's Cottage, a unique boutique filled with great clothes.  The ladies who worked there, along with some local shoppers, made our visit a lot of fun!  Yes, we walked away with a few new clothes :)
