Previous Baldy
Final weekend 5 pals and I spent a protracted weekend on Bald Head Island. This was my first time taking a gaggle from Cville, and we had such a good time! The draw back was that we barely noticed the solar so our time spent on the seashore was minimal, however we made up for that with loads of stress-free chill time in the home and enjoying a number of video games. Thomas stayed residence with the boys as a result of he’s gearing up for a giant golf journey with pals to Charleston in October! I hope he has higher climate than we did.
Thursday
We arrived on the 3pm ferry on Thursday. This was everybody’s first go to to BHI, so it was enjoyable to indicate them the ropes and the main landmarks.

Seaside Go to

Tattoos!
Take a look at my semi-temporary tattoos! Lots of my pals have tattoos, so I purchased a few of these to strive. The island is by InkBox and the butterflies are by Ink Artwork Hyperlink. I actually wish to strive the InkBox pen however I used to be anxious it wouldn’t be a nice sufficient tip. Anybody tried it? These keep on for 1-2 weeks! The one on my wrist is nearly gone from rubbing and hand washing, however the ones on my ankles look superb one week later!
One in every of these is actual. Are you able to guess which one? TOP OR BOTTOM? Since I had sheets of them, all of us put them on.
