Last week, we packed up the van and headed to Georgia to visit my family. After visiting for a day or so, we left Oliver with his Pawpaw and Nini, and Don and I headed to Charleston, SC for a much-needed vacation on our own! We don't often get time away from him so this was like being in heaven!
When we arrived at our hotel, we just bummed around the resort grounds for awhile. Our hotel was absolutely beautiful and in an amazing location! Since it is mid-October, it was pretty quiet too. The hotel was located right on the harbor, next to the marina. There were two long docks you could walk out on. As soon as we arrived, we headed out onto one of them. Within a few minutes, we spotted several dolphins swimming in the harbor! They came right over by us. It was awesome! I am totally fascinated by whales and dolphins so I could have sat all day on that dock and watched them. Pretty much every time we were near the water, we would spot them. Very cool!
