What a Day

Today was a day for adventuring. With a long weekend ahead of us we set out for Savannah with the intent to go to the Oatland Island Wildlife Center and check it out. It truly is one of Savannah's "hidden gems"

A little ways south of Bay street, the nature center is home to lots of native North American wildlife. The girls favorite was the fox, which they got to great view of. Other exhibits included a bobcat, which we couldn't find, crocodiles, ibis, cougar, heron, a wolf,two bison, along with several other exhibits we didn't even get to.



A few miles down the road from the Wildlife center, on the next island, is Tybee. It was a great day for it too, we just happened to have the girls bathing suits in the back of the car. The water was warm and clear and perfect for splashing. In addition to the piles of sand we all wore home, the girls collected tons of sea shells.



We even got to drive past the Tybee light house on the way home


All followed up finely with a trip to the local drive-in movie theater for a double feature. We get to see both Shrek the Final Chapter AND Iron Man 2 all from the comfort of our own car!
