We arrived in Morehead City, North Carolina today for a much anticipated visit with our friends Louis and Diane Wade on Bella Luna (bottom-left). We have traveled with them on and off during our trip and some of our fondest Loop memories involve these two amazing people. They had graciously invited us to stop for a visit at their beach house in Morehead City, when we were traveling through, for some R & R off the boat and we knew that we could not pass up this offer.

Charlie and Linda on Freedom’s Turn had arrived a few days earlier and they all turned up at the dock to catch our lines and help us secure our boat before we took off for a fun few days at their Beach House talking about our trips and learning about what southern hospitality means.
