Bank Hopping [Ocracoke]

Got a taste of island commuting as we worked our way down the Outter Banks. We spent half a day either waiting for a ferry or riding one. Along the way we picked up a hitchhiker/commuter who worked on Hatteras but lived on Cedar Island. She had quite a life story to tell.

Ended the day at Cape Lookout. It is quite a contrast from the hubbub of Hatteras. Nature is the dominant theme here as the Bank is roadless and only accessible by small Park ferry.
