The weather forecasts for Boston and environs make the bright blue sky and 60-degree temperatures here more enjoyable. We feel that we are required to go out and savor the day. So this morning we did an audio tour of one part of Historic Beaufort. It was quite well done. The history of Beaufort was interwoven between the descriptions of the houses and their history. There were even sound effects (sea gulls, booming cannons etc.) and musical interludes of civil war songs. After the tour we had lunch outside in a restaurant overlooking the waterfront park. Our favorite features in the park are the wooden park benches that are suspended as swings. Not kiddy swings these are adult swings. And as adults we love them. Especially after a nice lunch it’s the perfect place to sit in the sun and read as Harry did - or stretch out and turn your face toward the sun as I did. To top off the day we drove to Port Royal and walked along the Sands Beach Boardwalk, which stretches out along the marsh. Lovely day.
