Day 15 - St. Andrews State Park


[Jessie] This morning I woke up and my parents were already up making French toast at my request. I love French toast! We ate our breakfast then got back on the road. We drove for about an hour and 20 minutes. It would have been a shorter drive but the traffic was terrible. Finally we arrived at St. Andrews State Park (which is also a beach so how was I supposed to know what it was called?) and got out of the motorhome. We went to go explore the beach to see if we should go to a different one or if we should stay here, and the beach looked nice so we stayed. Mom was very concerned [Dad taking over the writing here] about the surf, but after I checked it out we all eventually went in.  It was dark and stormy, but the water was warmer than any ocean water I’ve ever felt (had to be 84 or 85).  There was lots of algae in the water, but it was still very pleasant.  Eventually it started raining and we ate sandwiches under a covered picnic area.  I went for a quick run along the beach in the rain and then we drove to our campsite.  It was on the lagoon side of the peninsula right up against the water.  It rained for a couple of hours, so we took showers and read inside.  After it stopped, Patty and I took a walk for a couple of miles along the water through the campground.

We fixed dinner and ate outside.
