Folly 2025-Part II

 Wednesday


A few of us woke up early to go watch the sunrise on the east end of the island. It's always so beautiful!















Ike and Mom were back at it fishing again today.

























Sunset on the west end :)


















Thursday



Today we went into Charleston for a quick tour around our favorite spots before getting lunch in North Charleston.




























Lunch was at The Glass Onion. The chef worked in some fantastic restaurants in Charleston so we decided to give it a try. Man that was a great decision!



















After lunch the guys went to play golf so Ben and I hung out on the beach and then Mom, Ben, and I went out to dinner.


















Friday


Last day! Ike went fishing again and caught a whopper. We hung out at the beach and got things around to head home on Saturday.


























A guy next to Ike caught this huge shark!








A very nice gentleman helped Ike get this onto the dock. He estimated it weight around 50 pounds! Catch of a lifetime for sure.























Well that wraps up our trip. Another beautiful week in Folly!

Folly Continued


On Wednesday we got up and around and then headed down to surf lessons for the kids. They had so much fun!
The boys really enjoyed their wetsuits for surfing.

Here are a bunch of pictures of the boys surfing, along with a couple of Josh and Gamma. Mom didn't take to the sea like the kids did, but I think she was still glad she did it! Josh got up a couple of times, but of course I didn't get any videos of him actually surfing. The weather was not in our favor, but no one seemed to mind much (except me, my camera kept getting wet!) since they were already in the water anyway.

Ready to hit some waves!



Ike was the first one up.

Gamma the surfing goddess.


Only picture I took of Josh. But he looks good in this one :)













Looking like real surfers. Although they aren't carrying their boards!





That was the last of exciting things we did on the trip. We went out to eat several times since there were so many restaurants with outdoor seating. But other than that we just hung out on the beach, took. morning and evening walks and played euchre (or any other game the kids were playing at the time!).








Uncle Tony buried the kids a couple times of course.











Sunrise with momma.




Kids searching for buried treasure with their new metal detector.


We did go visit the Angel Oak, no trip to Charleston is complete without doing that!



I cannot get my blog to work properly, so I'll just caption the last pictures down here! On our last night we went for a walk on the end of Folly to watch the sunset. It was gorgeous and the perfect ending to our trip! We had so much fun and are anxious to get back again once the new pier is built!
