Is It the Place or the People?

Is it the place or the people that make for a great vacation, even if it is a rather short vacation? At Kiawah Island, it is a rare combination of both, but I would have to say that the people are the most essential ingredient, and here are the people I enjoyed spending this long weekend with.

We also met up with some long time friends from Wisconsin. Thanks, social media! We had a great time catching up with the Cooks at Gilligan's on John's Island.

On this, our last day, Walter and I got up early to see the sun rise (a repeat performance, but just as amazing) and take a long bike ride. We rode to another Marsh Tower and crossed paths with a few deer. Strapped to the Marsh Tower was a box with a journal and pens for visitors to record their special Kiawah moments. I think I could have filled up that journal. 

I think we all feel refreshed and relaxed. I also feel so grateful for time to connect with friends and the two children who live in our basement. I will leave you with a few photos. Until next time!
