Beaufort, North Carolina, launched off of Front Street onto Taylor Creek, then paddle over to Carrot Island.  Saw a Bottlenose dolphin on the way over to Carrot Island and saw 4 to 5 wild ponies on the Island.  Got out of the kayak and walked around on the Island for a little while, then returned to Front Street. Wind was 7 to 13 mph and the temperature was 69 degrees.
