Over the 4th of July holiday Paul and I got the opportunity to go camping with our friends Rishi and Tulika. Rishi is a classmate of Paul's and we going to be travel buddies with them for 3 weeks as we travel Asia so, we thought it may be good to give traveling together a test run of 3 days :) Least to say, we had a blast and can't wait for our travels to come!
Last year we went to Cumberland Island and fell in love with it and knew we had to go back this year. It is like no other place we have ever been! The island itself looks like something out of Jurassic Park but also has just gorgeous beaches that we practically had to ourselves! After growing up in Colorado, Paul and I grew accustomed to going camping or hiking and never seeing a soul and that is just not the case on the east coast. So, we love this place because only like 40 people can be on this island at a time which makes it SO peaceful! And the wildlife there is always awesome. We saw everything from wild turkeys, horses, armadillos and crab. It was a great little break from city life and I hope to make it a annual tradition for as long as we are in Atlanta.

I read for hours on the beach. It was wonderful!
The beautiful and peaceful beach.
