[quote=Anonymous]Op, this happens to many families arriving at the obx since people drive in early but the rentals usually become available 3 or later. From 20 years of such travels, I suggest that you call the rental company on your drive down and again request early check in and give them your cell and request they call you when the house is ready - it may get you in a little earlier than scheduled. As far as what to do, almost every house we have rented has been part of a "community," with a community pool, beach access point, often tennis, playground, etc - so we would pack a small backpack with our suits, sunscreen and beach towels and spend the time at the pool and beach (you can change in the bathrooms).  This way it kicks off the trip in a beach frame of mind, it is easy to pass the time, and most importantly you are near your house - trust me you do not want to be driving up and down Route 12 (to get to wright bros, movies, golf, etc) on a Sat or Sun in the obx unless you have to do it - those are great ideas other days, though. Since you need to leave most of your things in the car, if you do this remember to bring in with you a bag with any medications so they don't sit in the hot sun (I just ask the person in the check in gate or snack bar to hold them in the refrige or someplace shaded).[/quote]
