Edisto Island Part 2

The 2nd day at the beach we headed over to the Atlantic side (one side of the island is on an inlet where there are no big waves and that is where we spent the 1st day). I was afraid Madison wouldn't like the big waves crashing in but she did pretty well...Caleb and Taylor loved it though and would go way out with Matt and Peepaw. Madison liked to stay where the water wouldn't knock her over. We had so much fun that day just playing in the water and sand and soaking up the sun!

Just letting the waves barely touch her


Taylor found a completely intact conch shell


This man was feeding bread to the seagulls from his hand


Everyone looking for conch shells


Madison running from the waves


I love this picture of Madison just sitting there watching the waves


Waiting for the waves


And the wave hits


Where are Caleb and Matt?


There they are..both fine!


Unsuspecting Matt and Peepaw get hit by an huge wave!


The kids with Nona and Peepaw


The seagulls would come so close


This seagull had swallowed some fishing lure(we feed him some cheez-its to see if he could eat and he was able to)


Building sandcastles and burying Madison's legs



After spending the whole day at the beach we went back to our house and cleaned up and enjoyed a fabulous dinner at McConkey's Jungle Shack. They had the best fish tacos..could have eaten there every night!


After dinner we headed back to the beach to look for seashells and crabs


The kids saw this dead horseshoe crab and had to investigate. Right after Caleb flipped it over he ran! He was expecting an empty shell not for the crab's body to still be in. It was hilarous!
