We had a lazy morning and then our rented bikes were delivered to the marina by Terry, who had been a South Carolina judge for many years. Interesting, very talkative guy! I thought that judges were elected in the States but it turns out it varies by State. In South Carolina, judges are appointed by the Senate but in Georgia, for instance, they are elected.

We biked down an old railway line that had been converted to a very nice concrete bicycle path to Port Royal. In Port Royal we had lunch at Cracked Egg. Karen and I went healthy, having French Toast Biscuits and bacon! Yum!

Afterwards we biked down to the Sands Beach and the observation tower. Beautiful views!

| Really! |
Then it was back into town to walk around the Port Royal Rookery and Cypress Wetlands Trail. We saw storks, a rabbit, ducks, turtles and a gator!

Back to Beaufort, we returned the bikes and got together on the patio at Plums for a beer.
A whirlwind day but great fun!
This is cruising!
