It was a nice day. The sun was shining and we took the Atlantic Ocean to Charleston, SC.
It was a little rough, but we all did OK. Thomas had a bucket experience, but he has such a good attitude and bounced back so quickly, it was not such a big thing.
We saw Fort Sumter as we pulled into port and that was exciting, as it is the first battle of the Civil War and we are studying just that right now. History comes alive!!
I am thankful for Emily 's gift of noticing the "small stuff". We arrived mid day and walked the dog down the dock. Emily noticed the marshy area that was full of thousands of snails. As we went into town for dinner, she noticed the tide had come in and the same place was filled with water and fish feeding on the snails. Her keen observations caused us all to pause and give thanks to the Designer of the ecosystem.
