The first leg of the Journey is done





We were up early. Ralph did the finishing touches to the packing and we were on the road by 6:00. We met Laura anod Jay by the Duty Free store at Peace Bridge.  Everyone was excited and ready to go.  The weather is perfect for travelling. It's clear sky's all the way to North Carolina.  Suddenly the sky is starting to get quite black.   We hope that the storm won't be too bad as we still had 2 more hours of driving left to do.  Thankfully we seemed to drive around it as we only had a few sprinkles.  On the radio, we hear all about the State of Emergency that has been declared along the coastline in North Carolina.  The storm is going to hit this evening and tomorrow morning. They are warning that there may be severe flooding and wind damage.  Hopefully we will miss the worst of the it.
