Fun Old-Fashioned Family Christmas, 2025: Tybee Island

Our fun old-fashioned family Christmas moved for 2025 to Tybee Island, Georgia, where we had rented a beachy house for five days. The travel and transportation issues--coming from Cary, NC, Washington, DC, and Chicago, IL--meant a somewhat scaled-back Christmas, for us, particularly in terms of meals (no fondues!) and number of presents, but we had a great time nonetheless. 

Penelope and Rebecca on the pier at Tybee Beach



Not the house we rented but nearby; we were somewhat deficient
in our documentation; e.g., there were no pix of a great meal at the
Crab Shack...

Did not know this

Beach looking southward; not highly developed, which is why people 
like it


Looking northward

Click to enlarge; the black speck near the middle is a pelican; a bit further 
out and to the right you can see the fin of a large dolphin patroling...

Main drag


Now it is Christmas day afternoon, on the SW side, awaiting the sunset





Taking pix of us taking pix of each other taking pix


A photobombing seagull (larus photobombardimentus) flies by





Going, going, going...
