Today Chris and I decided to take a short trip to Southport. I hadn't gone there in a while, I'd forgotten how beautiful it is there. I love historic downtowns, it's like Wilmington's but without the night clubs, ha ha.
We took a few pictures by the water but there were seagull everywhere. You can always tell who the tourists are because they love to get them excited, lol.
This is an adorable group of stores call The Olde Village Shops of Southport.
The walkway connects about 10 cottages, they're mostly gift shops. I loved it! They're all SO cute! I didn't want to leave ha ha.
The Pink Palace tea room and gift shop. The most ADORABLE little tea shop ever! They had teacups, vintage hankies, chocolates, and a small tea room in the back. We didn't get to eat there today but will definitely come back to do so soon.
After we got done enjoying downtown Southport we headed to dock to take the ferry to For Fisher. This tree was the perfect height to sit on, so of course I sat on it.
Chris got camera happy.
Yeah we like to take a lot of pictures, lol.
On the Ferry waiting for it to set sail. I guess the seagull couldn't read. ;)
The sun was setting and there was barely any breeze. It was a nice trip.
Life saver Fort Fisher
We had a lovely time, it was nice to get out of town and get a change of scenery. The ferry ride home was the best, the sunset made the water an the clouds look so beautiful. I hope we can go back soon before it gets cold.
