the beach ...
Havelock is near the coast, but not on it. But I've got time to kill, so I head southeast hoping to find a place with lots of sand and lots of water. I end up at Atlantic Beach, and island of the Southern Outer Banks. Great place for me to stuff my toes in sand, then dip them in saltwater, then back into the sneaks to browse cheesy tourist junk stores ... which is precisely what I do.
