Wright Brothers Monument — Attraction in Kill Devil Hills

This is a fascinating place. I really enjoyed the museum and learning some facts that I never knew before. $10 for regular admission. There is a really cool replica of the first plane inside of the museum. It was really exciting to stand outside on the airfield where the first flight in the world took place.

It's neat. I've been here a few times over the years, but I was surprised at how expensive it is now!! Check the prices for your group before you go. WOW! Times have changed, I guess!

It's the kindbof place you go as a tourist if the weather isn't great and the beach doesn't seem too appealing....
