Family Vacation: Day 16 "Last Day in South Carolina"

Well, if all goes well, we're headed to the Great Wolf Lodge in Williamsburg on our way home to Maryland. Hurricane Irene's arrival forced us to stay here one more day to avoid a dangerous ride home. It's tough extending your vacation, let me tell you!

So, here's our last day in S.C.

This last picture has a cool story. We went to the Garden City Pier in hopes of seeing sharks like we did earlier in the first week. A man was fishing near us and caught this baby sand shark. He asked Abbie if she wanted to hold it and explained specifically where to grasp it so it wouldn't bit her. Pretty cool! When he told her to throw it back in, he said, "And watch to see if a big shark eats it." Stephen and I peered over the ledge and as soon as the baby shark hit the water, up popped a 5' shark to eat the baby! So cool!
