After disembarking the American Liberty, we took a small boat to Harbor Town on Historic Hilton Head. Cecile and I, and Susan and Nelson took an hour guided exploration of the pristine freshwater lakes of the 600-acre Sea Pines Resort Preserve, in a covered 12-passenger electric boat to the nesting grounds of a number of belly—dragging Alligators, both big and small. We also got a close-up view of Hilton Head’s indigenous plants and other animal life like black turtles, the great blue heron, egrets and osprey flying above us.
Our next excursion was the Dolphin watching Cruise to discover how playful, endearing, and amazing bottle-nose dolphins truly are. We saw a number of them swimming nearby as they came up for air every few seconds.
For dinner we had a Georgia Tomato Salad with sliced peaches, Veal Piccata with Angel hair pasta, Seared Georgia’s Bank Sea Scallops, Tiramisu, Banana Cream Tartlets and ice cream for dessert.
For after dinner entertainment, Stephanie Yonskie, from New York, sang songs from country legends past and present, like Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, and Carrie Underwood to name a few.
