This will be the third year that my entire family will go down to hilton head again.
Ironically, my son (while asking about Hawaii too) said that he wanted to go down to Hilton Head with the family again. I have to admit, I’m looking forward to it myself this year too (see my post from this past winter).
We will probably go kayaking (hopefully) with the dolphins again this year, rent bikes to go on the various trails, and of course… hit the beach. Now that I’m pretty comfortable with the location and have a feel for the location, I’ll probably read a little more and try to do stuff that I haven’t done the previous two years.
My only regret will probably be that fact that we didn’t book a vacation on one of the plantations. The main reason that I would like to stay on a plantation is because my 6 year old is going to be riding a bike by herself. The house that we are staying at is close to the main road into the island, and while the traffic on the road that the house is on isn’t too busy for an adult it’s still pretty busy for a 6 year old. I might break down and rent another tag-a-long bike attachment. That way, she would be more safe than ride a bike by herself… I’m sure she’ll protest, but safety first!
This time around, I’ll also be taking my golf clubs, and perhaps even my son’s clubs 🙂
Unfortunately, we are not schedule to go down until August though, so we’re in for a long wait.
If you ever go down to Hilton Head, consider kayaking with the dolphins… It was a much better experience than I thought it would be.
