Well, I just finished unpacking my last suitcase after returning from vacation. I am going to tell on myself, we have been back for 5 days and I just got around to unpacking that last case! Are you like that? LOL! Anyway, we spent a wonderful week at the beach with my sister-in-law and her family. It was such a great time to be together and just relax. However, I will add this I am one to sleep in, but something was different at the beach just about every morning I was up around 6 or so, which allowed me to finally cross watching the sunrise off my bucket list. I watch it from the very beginning from seeing the moon out to the complete sunrise and the was pretty amazing! Then one evening we took a charter boat ride to see the dolphins. OH MY GOODNESS! We went to this little town in North Carolina called Calabash. Got on the boat - let me add the family went to the top off the boat and I and thinking ...okay. So we meet our Captain- Captain Dallas and of we head go through the inlet. This as so beautiful! There was untouched wetlands and sand dunes.So awesome! Well I was ok and snapping pictures as quick as I could and then WAVES! At this point I gave the camera to my husband and grabbed the rail. Funny thing is I gave my daughter and husband motion sickness medicine before we went out and I ended up grabbing the bar :0) Anyway we are a good ways out in the Atlantic and Captain Dallas stops the boat. And tells everyone to look to the right side of the boat - the side our family was on and you could gradually feel the boat moving to the right, so what did I do? Grabbed that bar tighter! I told my husband to try to get some pictures and he did. Then the captain said look to left to see the dolphins and the boat tilted once again...lol. After all this tilting, I was finally getting use to the boat and finally let go of the rail....BTW I had paint flakes on my hands LOL :) The experience was so worth it. If you ever have the chance to go for a boat ride to see dolphins ...GO FOR IT! I am now ready to go to the Bahamas on a cruise and have a chance to swim with dolphins!
