Camping at the Beach - Part 3

The next morning was Father's Day. It was absolutely beautiful, and we decided to spend the whole day at the beach! This was our ride onto Isle of Palms

We got set up in a great spot

Cool dude

We did LOTS of digging

On the way back to the camper that afternoon, this happened very quickly

We went out for a fun dinner that evening, at Shem Creek

Checking out the boats while we waited for our food

The next morning we did the nature trail before packing up the camper

We saw a snake, but no gators. There were also some huge spiders. Quite an adventure!

It was a really fun camping trip! We are just loving our camper!

Camping at the Beach - Part 2

Our first full day, we headed over to Isle of Palms. It was a short 10 minute drive and we were on the beach!

They loved the sand but they also loved the water and spent most of the day splashing in the waves

We stopped at a famous hot dog place for lunch and Anson wanted to sit on the vintage car ride

That afternoon we went for an ill fated round of mini golf. But Camille sure does look cute next to the sign!

That night everyone was in a much better mood for a fun dinner at Mellow Mushroom. There was even live music, which the kids enjoyed.

Father's Day weekend we took a camping trip to the Charleston area. We stayed on Mount Pleasant, which is very close to the beautiful beaches of Isle of Palms. It was our first experience at a KOA, and we were impressed. There was a lake, a nice pool, a playground, and a great nature trail that wound through the grounds of an old plantation. We had nice hot, sunny weather, so we spent much of our time at the beach, but we also explored the campground quite a bit.

It was a quick, easy ride, and the kids were very good
