During the fall and spring break many LL.M.s traveled around NC and its surrounding states and had the opportunity to see all the beautiful places the south has to offer. Wilmington located at the lower east side of North Carolina has beautiful beaches full of hotels and motels that are along the coast. It also has a cozy downtown with many restaurants one can visit. This was the first place a group of the LL.M. class of 2001 visited. If you go there at fall break you will see the various colors of fall reflected in the mountainside, a sight indeed to behold.
Snow ski is also possible in North Carolina.
The class of 1999 recommended a town called Boone in the mountains. It has some ski resorts that offer the possibility of learning how to ski, or just to have fun for those who already know the sport at moderate prices. Durham is a place to do outdoor activities. There is Jordan and Falls Lake where one can prepare a barbecue and swim in the lake. Located few minutes from Duke, it s a great weekend short stop without leaving Durham.
