To the beach and back...
Yesterday we hit the beach. In less than an hour, we were sitting on the sands of Tybee Island. $5 for parking, no fee for beach access and the warm waters of the Atlantic...it was awesome!!1 Tybee Island is a beautiful place. It was easy to get to (less than an hour) and pretty empty...going on a weekday was key. The beach was beautiful and the kids had a great time. I'm sure Julia will get some pics up soon. After the beach we went to the Crab Shack (www.thecrabshack.com). What a place! Right on the water, lots of alligators on display (live ones!) outdoors and under big mangrove trees. We then went over to see the Tybee Island Lighthouse which is right next to Fort Screvens...an old coastal defense fort built in the late 1800s. A quick trip for ice cream completed the day and we made it all with out sunburns!
We passed Fort Pulaski, build by General Lee when he was a Lieutenant which Mike will end up spending a lot of time at. Looks like another warm sunny day. Have a great one where you are!
