The 2:15 (duration) ferry from Ocracoke to Cedar Island is pretty on days like this, but it does put a dent in the schedule. I got the cedar Island on time, then headed south to more adventure. I decided not to go out to Cape Lookout because of time, which turned out to be a really good decision. I did spend some time at several locations along the way to do a little sightseeing. I've never been on the base at Camp Lejeune, and didn't go this time. I'm saving a lot for the next trip.
