Timeshare Vacationing: Day 1 of 7 in Ocean Isle Beach, NC: A Slice of Heaven

Day 1 of 7 in Ocean Isle Beach, NC has been like a slice of heaven.  

This week, Erich and I are enjoying our timeshare 900 miles from home and a world away from the chilly and rainy Spring weather of the North Eastern US.  

For the next week we are free of our chicken-eating dogs (another blog all together), our teenagers and our baby Helena.  Thank goodness for grandparents.  A real vacation for just the two of us and we're stoked!  

We had to travel through this....

Torrential Rain in NY

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

.....to get to this.....

Ok, this is a working vacation, but I'm up for it.  We'll be fully "plugged into the matrix" until Friday...then our cellphones are off til after Memorial Day.   

Erich already has his glass of wine in one hand.....iPhone in the other....

We had a rain/sun/rain during our 15 hour drive from Amherst, NH to OIB, NC and were greeted by 80 degrees and lovely breezes once we got here.  

We ditched our jeans for swimsuits and headed for the beach.  WARM water is out there guys!  We were able to swim in the ocean, walk on the beach and the relaxing is underway.  Ocean swimming in May!  Only in the Carolinas.

Erich at the Beach!

I have decided to make all of my real estate blogs this week somehow vacation-related.  Stay tuned for daily updates on life at Ocean Isle Beach, NC and tomorrow I'm going to talk a bit about Timeshares....pros and cons.  They are not for everyone and most folks think they are more "indulgence" than "investment".  

Come back to see what I think about timeshares and 5 key steps to deciding if a timeshare is for you (or maybe just having a friend with one is enough).

Cheers!

Caroline
