Day 70: Fort Fisher and Southport Ferry: Ferry's are still running in NC... take a pleasurable ride with your car or on foot. http://www.pleasureislandnc.org/ferryschedule.asp
The scenery along the Cape Fear River is lovely. It's a short ride to Southport where you can take in the antique shops, dine out or just stroll along the streets. Coming from Southport to Fort Fisher you can take in the aquarium or the Civil War Museum, or just relax at the beach. It's an economical day and staying off the road and travelling on the river is more fun.

It sounds like a great way to enjoy a day.
Good luck and success.

Lots of fun, both ways and just to feel the breeze is great on a hot day.
