The Beach

So we are at Hilton Head Island, SC. We left on Sunday morning. We got here around 1:00 and we couldn't check in to our hotel until 4:00. So we got some lunch, then we all changed in to our bathing suits (in the car, LOL) and headed to the beach for a few hours. It was overcast and wonderful! Today, Monday, there was a 60% chance of thunderstorms, we thought it was going to rain all day. When we got up the sun was shining, so we headed to the beach. We had been there about 30-45 minutes and Avery got stung by a jellyfish. He dealt with it pretty well, it only took him about 2 hours to get back in the water. After lunch Anna Kathryn got stung too. Now there were probably 1000 people on the beach, what are the odds of 2 people in the same family getting stung??? Anyway AK cried a little louder than Avery, but she survived, and did get back in the water. Quote of the day by AK...."Why did God have to create jellyfish?" Then supposedly some man swam out to the buoy and supposedly some one saw him go under. They made everyone get out of the water. The lifeguards searched the water for a while with the Coast Guard. Then they made human chains with people on the shore searching the bottom of the ocean for a body. Roman, of course, joined in. And he got stung about 3 times by jellyfish. Ok now the jellyfish were not that bad, but 3 out of 6 of us got stung. They later called off the search. There was no family looking for the man. One lifeguard said it could have been a manatee. Anyway, we got back to the room around 4:45, the rain started around 5:30, Praise the Lord! I will post pictures when we get home on Wednesday.
