Oriental bound

We ventured across the Pamlico Sound and down the Neuse River to one of our favorite towns in North Carolina: Oriental.

We secured a slip for the night so we could get a hot shower and a few groceries.

We took a walk through town up to the local grocery store, passing cute Christmas decorations along the way.

Back at the boat we are making chili for the Chiefs game tonight – and staying warm.
