We left South Beach early on Thursday 28 February 2008 to start the long haul home. We had been looking at various islands off the South Carolina coast as a point to stop for a few nights around the halfway point. We ended up in a two bedroom villa at the Marriott Barony Beach Club on Hilton Head Island. While temperatures here were down to around 20 deg C, it was warm enough to convince us to add a third night to our stay. It was also enjoyable to be in a larger place with a full kitchen, spa baths etc after all those nights in hotel rooms, many without even a refrigerator.
We didn't do a lot here although we haven't been relaxing as much as we planned. Main activities have been visiting the beach, swimming in the indoor pool, eating, drinking, etc. We have also had a couple of trips up to the outlet shops, as if the poor old Subaru wasn't already too full!
We leave here early on Sunday 2 March for what should be around 9 hours of driving to get us back to 'Dori's house' as Kieren calls it. He is keen to get back home and to see his mates at school. The rest of us would be quite happy to head back to Key West to just hang out for a few more weeks. Although Donna has already planned birthday parties for both kids and is working on a Las Vegas / Grand Canyon week in the near future!
