Escaping Earl -- The Adventure Continues

Well, so much for a week-long beach vacation at the Outer Banks! We were mandatorily evacuated yesterday. We got the notice at 9:30 AM and we were supposed to be out by 12:30 PM. We didn't quite make it but by 1 PM we were on the road. Traffic ran smoothly until we hit the Pea Island Reserve where a large water flow slowed traffic to a crawl.

The family decided not to go home. Instead, we've escaped to Raleigh, NC where we will stay until Saturday so that we don't "end the vacation early." Suggestions for things to do and see in Raleigh are most welcome.
