The town is cute with a great community feel. The streets are lined with oaks, Spanish moss, and flowers. Birds sing and everyone gives a friendly wave. We saw an oak tree over 1,000 years old, and dined at a wonderful restaurant called TW Graham Co which had soft shell crab.Okumaya devam et

Roanoke Island
1 Nisan 2023, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri
We visited the island and the town of Manteo. The island is known as the home of the lost colony. In the 1500s it was the first English colony, but all the residents disappeared and they’re still searching to see what happened.

We toured the downtown, a Christmas Shop, and the Festival Park which had information on the Native American people, colonial life, and a replica of the Ship Elizabeth.Okumaya devam et

Fort Raleigh Nagional Park and gardens
2 Nisan 2023, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri
The tip of the island is the National park where they believed the actual location of the settlement was. There’s an earthen mound that was recreated on the site of the original mound used as a defense structure.

The Elizabethan Gardens next door honors and remembers the settlers that have disappeared. In the rose garden, there’s a rose given by Queen Elizabeth II from her Windsor Garden as a gift for Americas bicentennial.Okumaya devam et

Chrysler Museum

The Chrysler Museum of Art was amazing. It had a glass studio next door that had glass blowing demonstrations. We were fortunate as they had a guest visiting who had appeared in the competition show Blown Away. We watched the special guest make a bowl.

The museum was also spectacular with interactive exhibits and items from the ancient world. They had a reconstruction room where we watched a painting get repaired.Okumaya devam et
