Long story short: we got there, it was freezing and raining, we were all soaked and cold-we found some neat shells, none of the big sand dollars or conch shells that were promised, but a nice little collection nonetheless. About halfway through when we were walking along the beach my flip flop broke-no big deal, but we had to trek back across the island to get to where the ferry picks us up, and in between us and that are little hills, loads and loads of horse doo, trails, little cacti (which Patrick stepped on quite a few times, poor kid) and dead jellyfish along the beach. It made for a dreary day... plus, to top it all off, we didn't see ANY horses... but when we told the ferry driver that he said there were 2 of them a little to the right of us, so he drove us over there to see them! But Patrick and I really had fun, it was more of an adventure than anything... we laughed about it the whole way home! I'm sure Kas and her mom, Sue, will post pictures too... so check out their blogs as well!
Waiting for the ferry to leave to take us over to the island

Patrick gleefully trotting back to me with the seashells he found
