Hey everyone!
Greetings from sunny Hilton Head Island! 🌞 We just arrived, and let me tell you, the vibes here are nothing short of amazing. The moment we stepped onto the island, I felt like I was walking into a postcard—beautiful beaches, charming shops, and so much greenery!
After a quick check-in at our cozy little beachside cottage, we decided to explore the island a bit. First stop? Local Pie, a quaint pizzeria everyone’s been raving about. If you know me, you know how much I love a good pizza, so I had high hopes. And let me tell you, Local Pie did not disappoint! We went for their signature pizza—loaded with fresh, local ingredients, and the crust was perfection. Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. Paired it with a local craft beer, and I was in pizza heaven. 🍕🍻
This morning, I woke up to the sound of waves crashing—what a way to start the day! We spent the morning lazing on the beach, soaking up the sun, and letting the worries melt away. The sand here is so fine and soft; it feels like powdered sugar between your toes. In the afternoon, we took a leisurely bike ride along some of the island’s scenic trails. Hilton Head is super bike-friendly, with miles of paths winding through lush forests and along the coastline. We stumbled upon a hidden gem, a small park with a perfect view of the marshlands. It felt like we had the whole place to ourselves!
We headed to a local ranch near Deer Island for some horseback riding. Now, I’ve ridden horses a few times before, but this was something else. The trails here are breathtaking—winding through woods, past serene lagoons, and even along the beach. My horse, a gentle giant named Duke, was such a sweetheart. Seriously, if you’re ever here, horseback riding is a must! 🐴
Tomorrow is our last day on Hilton Head. We plan to take it slow, savoring every last moment. A lazy brunch at a cute café with the fluffiest pancakes I’ve ever had is definitely on the agenda. Then, we’ll spend the afternoon exploring some local shops, picking up a few souvenirs and gifts. Before heading back, we’ll take one last stroll along the beach. I can’t resist dipping my toes in the water and letting the waves wash over my feet. I know I'll feel a mix of sadness and contentment—sad to leave but so grateful for the beautiful memories.
Hilton Head, you’ve been a dream. Can’t wait to come back soon!
Until next time,
XOXO
