Seabrook Island Part 4: The Turtle Release

We headed down to the beach early on our last day there to watch the Turtle Patrol inspect some nests to see if there were any remaining turtles to release into the ocean.  And there were TWO!  They were so little and cute and they immediately bobbled into the ocean and swam off.  It was pretty damn awesome.

The crowd gathering at the first nest.
