Edisto Day 3

Hello everyone! Back to my adventures on Edisto Island. Daddy had to leave Tuesday night to go back home to Columbia because he had to work the rest of the week. :-( It was very sad. But I still managed to have a fun time.
 Wednesday morning we went to a place called Botany Bay. We had to hike out through a marsh to get there. Mommy said it was a "protected" beach and so I couldn't take any sea shells I found home with me.

 Mommy carries her silly eye glass things because she likes to look at birds. I'd rather chase them!
 I'm ready for adventure!

 Hikers like to put their sea shells on this tree to show them off since they can't take them from the bay.



 And of course I played in the water! I got my clothes all wet and sandy!


 Mommy eventually wandered off to go look for birds.



 I like to put my head in the water! It makes everybody laugh.

 The only birds I saw were the ones Papa calls pelicans.





 Mommy came back and told us she didn't see too many birds either, just a big spider.



 Speaking of chasing birds.... I chased this little guy all the way down the beach! (a plover is what mommy called him)
 After that adventure we came home so I could get lunch and a nap. Before my nap mommy took me outside and let me sit with her in the hammock. It was a beautiful day!




 While I napped, Nonna went to the beach to hunt for treasure. She found two tin cans and some tent stakes!
 After my nap we went to the beach to watch some baby turtles hatch and head out to sea!















 Once the turtles were on their journey we watched the sun set over the beach houses.





I'm signing off for now! See you back for day 4!
