Manteo on Roanoke Island June 17th

Manteo is a cute little town on Roanoke Island. The whole trip has been a page out of one history book or another. Today we are at the site of the first English settlement in North America.

The island was settled in 1587, but it along with all it's occupants disappeared the next year. No trace was found.

Today we are off  to Coinjock. It is known for the best prime rib special on the ICW. On the way down we could not get in so we moored on the other side of the channel.
