Ferries, Fried Shrimp, Full Moons and the OBX North Carolina - Going Back to Where You Came From

Send us Fan MailIn this first part of a two-episode story, A Lady Well-Travelled host, Shannon Bednarova, invites listeners along for a funny, heartfelt, and beautifully imperfect RV road trip through South Carolina, Virginia and North Carolina’s beloved Outer Banks. What begins as a practical trip to handle a move quickly turns into a classic real-life travel story filled with unexpected detours, moving-company drama, coastal comfort food, stormy skies, ferry rides, dolphins, small-town kindness, and the unforgettable magic of the OBX.  Since both Shannon and her best friend, Karen, grew up in Eastern NC, the road trip becomes a nostalgic chance to revisit the beaches, towns, roads, and coastal landscapes that shaped many of their younger memories.But as often happens in real travel, things do not go exactly according to plan. Rather than letting the experience ruin the trip, Shannon pivots with humor, perspective, and a strong “life happens” attitude. For travelers interested in ferry travel, RV trips, and coastal North Carolina, this segment offers a vivid sense of what makes the Outer Banks such a unique destination. To Shannon, Ocracoke feels like the “Key West of the Carolinas” — colorful, relaxed, quirky, and unforgettable.This episode is perfect for listeners who love real travel stories, funny travel mishaps, women’s travel adventures, RV road trips, Outer Banks vacations, North Carolina coastal travel, ferry rides, Southern travel, local restaurants, nostalgic travel, and honest reflections on what happens when a trip goes sideways but still turns into a beautiful memory.And guess what - Part Two is even BETTER!DISCLAIMER: All opinions, recommendations and experiences shared on this podcast are solely those of the creator and/or her guests.  Please do your own research and consult the appropriate professionals before making any decisions based on content shared on this show. Thank you for listening!  I welcome your feedback and suggestions or you simply let me know if you are enjoying the show.
