eumeliaI was in fact in east Virginia, the island of Chincoteague (where the hotel was) and the island of Assateague (where the beach was).
It was quite lovely, the weather was hot and the beach was absolutely fantastic!
The whole of Chincoteague basically caters to tourists and their major high is the 4th of July Weekend, where there seems to be a migration of people from the entire East Coast and Canada!
It was a fairly laid back holiday, Jade and I didn't go on any hiking with Shvo and Libby, we just lounged on the beach and the pool, which was fun all in itself.
We were extremely diligent with the sun screen, liberally applying it to Shvo and Libby and on ourselves (I didn't get burned - which was a surprise, since I am usually lobster like no matter how much sun screen I apply).
I definitely need a new swimming costume, the purple bikini I have just doesn't cut it anymore, I was feeling as if my boobs were falling out the entire time - when they did once when I was the (numbingly cold) water of the Atlantic, and a very hard wave crashed into me, my boobs popped out! Talk about a surprise, lucky I was able to adjust the top in time.
Shvo and I had a lot of fun building sand castles together and I enjoyed snoozing with Libby on the sun (under the sun umbrella - the best buy of the whole trip). Libby discovered sand and found it quite tasty since she was shoveling it into her mouth any chance she got and it crept into every inch of her. The funniest thing was when she started dipping her dummy into the sand and sucked on it, as if she was dipping it in honey!
I learnt a ton of life skills during the trip - I learned how to BBQ (and yes, my friends, I will cook for you), I learned how to read a road map (don't laugh, why would I need to know?) and I leaned that Seagulls are worse than Pigeons... and much scarier - those effing bastards stole our food!
