Smokies Trip Day 6-7

Day 6-

With a heavy heart but a great appreciation for the Smokies, we cleaned out the cabin and packed up the truck.  Most of the day was spent driving.  Halfway through the day I called and made reservations at Hunting Island State Park and spent the rest of the evening getting there.  We got in around 9pm.  It was dark and we were tired so we decided to explore in the morning.

Day 7-

It was chilly and the condensation inside the truck hadn't turned to ice overnight - we could tell we were closer to home!  After we got up and ate breakfast (leftover trail mix and fruit leather) we headed over to the coastline for a walk along the beach.  When we got there, it was easy to tell why this was the most visited state park in South Carolina!

Just down the road - maybe a mile or so - was a lighthouse.  We decided to visit!  

On the way home we stopped in Asheville, NC again and had some of the best Thai food at Thai Tara.  YUM!

Overall it was a great trip despite not doing anything we planned!  Or maybe it was a great trip because we didn't do anything we planned??  Either way, it was a true adventure!
