We arrived in Nags Head last night without mishap and settled in to the First Colony Inn in a nice second floor room that faces to Ocean (the Inn is three stories). The room has antique furniture, a small kitchenette, and a veranda on two sides that looks across the beach toward the ocean on one side and out across Pamlico Sound on the other. Built in 1932 and renovated when moved from the encroaching ocean, the place has a real old-style beach feel to it. The photo above is a sunrise view.
We arrived too late to catch the sunset cruise but did make it to Michael Walters' show "Show Tunes Made Me Gay" which was wonderful funny. On Sunday, Walters will be doing his Dame Edna show which is supposed to be great as well. The main Pride events begin today at 12:00 noon here on the First Colony Inn property which include spacious lawns and shade trees and a nice pool complex (see the aerial view below). I will post more after the breakfast (eggs, bacon, waffles, cereal, muffins, English muffins, fruit, etc., etc.) included in the room charge. BTW, it's a gorgeous sunny day!
Breakfast was good and the vendors are setting up. And in not too long the event will be underway. We have a number of friends down from Hampton Roads and HP Pride will have a booth promoting "Out in the Park" on August 18th.
