We have had the BEST week! We left last Saturday on our way to Tybee Island, GA. Neither of us had ever been there before, and we were excited to discover new territory, and spend time together. Josh has been working 12-15 hours a day for the last couple of months, so we were looking forward to spending some time together while we were actually awake. On our way over, we stopped to visit with some good friends, Kathy and Chris, and meet the latest addition to their family. We miss those guys, and it was great to spend a little time with them.
We LOVED Tybee Island! The condo we rented was wonderful, the atmosphere there was great, we had gorgeous weather, and of course there was the food! From our balcony or the beach, you could watch dolphins swimming by and playing all day long. One evening, we were walking along the beach at sunset, and a pod of dolphins surprised us right off shore. We were able to wade out in the water, and watched as they swam, played, and fed like 20-30 yards from where we were standing. Unfortunately, my battery on my camera died just as this began, so we don't have good footage :-(. We spent most of our days looking around in shops, exploring the island, and relaxing on the beach or by the pool. We also visited the Tybee Island light house, where we made the climb up 178 stairs to the top. The view from the catwalk up there was amazing! On our way home, we stopped in Savannah and spent the day. We checked out River Street, had lunch at Paula Deen's resturant (completely UNDERwhelmed with the food), and ended the trip with a walk through Forsyth Square. It was a great trip! After the events of the last year, this time away TOGETHER was exactly what we needed. I am including a few pictures from our trip.
