As I wrote earlier,
after we finished eating Sunday afternoon
at Basnight's Lone Cedar Cafe,
we had time to kill
so we went sightseeing in Manteo.
Our destination and goal
was to be in Manns Harbor
at a certain time -
sundown.
Our timing was awkward.
We'd just finished lunch.
If we headed back North to home,
we'd arrive just in time to go inside,
pee, turn around, and come back South where we were,
and then go some more South to Manns Harbor.
It made sense to continue South
from Basnight's
to Manteo
and take a little sightseeing tour
through a wonderfully quaint, eclectic,
and, dare I say, Bohemian town.
Thusly,
we ended up going to see the Elizabeth II,
the Freedmen's Colony,
Fort Raleigh,
the Waterside Theater,
a drive by of the Elizabethan Gardens,
and the North Carolina Aquarium.
Our destination was a Christmas light display
at a home in Manns Harbor
and the display at the Manns Harbor Post Office,
which was decorated by Michael C.,
the decorator of the home.
I'd heard about him
from the message boards
at obxconnection.com.
See here.
There was also another mention of him
in the Red Drum Tackle Shop Forums.
Seems there was a contest
at WAVY TV 10 in Norfolk
and Michael was in the running.
He didn't win
but he was in the top 5.
I'll just shut up now and let you take in the pictures and videos.
Words aren't needed.
The following video is of the Manns Harbor Post Office.
It was decorated by the same gentleman
who did the above decorations.
Merry Christmas To All
and
Thank You To Michael Coley
of Manns Harbor!
Stay tuned for the Poulos'
Christmas display.
Thanks Rosie. Did not get down there to see the display this year so your videos were much appreciated.
