ICW - Oriental, North Carolina

Docking at Oriental was a bit challenging for all of us with winds up to 30 mph!  It was a long day on the water and the town held a great evening of entertainment for our Sail Rally.  Entertainment included Drumming Dragons, Ukulele Group and a Guitar Band!  Some of the restaurants even offered us specials for the evening with special dishes and half-price wine!  Oriental is a quaint, harbor town with shrimp boats, lots of sailboats, shops, and galleries.  Oriental is located on The Neuse River, the widest mouthed river in the U.S. and five miles across.  In this town, boats outnumber the citizens three to one!
