Anyway, we had a great time in North Carolina. Spencer and Alana were awesome enough to let us crash at their place for a few nights. Adam used to be stationed there, so there was a lot of catching up and swapping of military stories with them and Patrick (who we should be seeing in Cleveland). We also ate tons of blueberries.
The next morning, we got the car checked out and headed to Wilmington for lunch. On the way, I got to feed my first toddler. Stopped at Wendy's on the way to his checkup, so we had chicken nuggets, mandarin oranges, and milk. Yum! Taking care of kids is apparently not that hard. ;-)
Downtown Wilmington was very cool. We didn't stay that long, but we checked out some great stores and restaurants. Walked down to the water and saw some ships and boats.
Headed back to Jacksonville to pick up the car and grab some dinner. Another first: eating at Red Robin. They have, like, bottomless everything, which was pretty awesome. I had wanted to go to one in Florida for a burger craving, but apparently there's only one in the whole state. Same for Fuddrucker's.
That night we had a lot of fun at home playing Boulderdash. First time playing that, too. Here's a picture of all of us, after.
The next day was spent driving to Maryland (yay!). Pretty uneventful. Drove through DC, which was cool. Saw the Washington Monument and I'm sure a bunch of other stuff I'm sure I recognized. We should be heading back after Baltimore, but we'll see how things turn out.
