A Ferry Ride


Yesterday we got out to ride around to see what we could see. We went up to Wilmington down route 211 to Carolina Beach State Park. I wantedd to see what the campground looked like. The cost for a no hook up site is to much to pay for me so I would not camp here. I is nice enough for tent camping they have a couple of water spigots through out the campground .


We did stop long enough to hike one of the trails.

We drove on down to the Southport ferry.

Here is the ferry with a load coming in from the other side. The trip takes 1/2 an hour.

We got on the ferry boat which hold 28 vehicles and goes across the wide Cape Fear River. They have an air conditioned lounge that you can set in on the trip over. This was nice and the cost of the ferry was $5.00.
