The First Bands of Tropical Storm Fay?

That was Folly Beach yesterday afternoon

This must be the first bands of tropical storm "Fay"

I like scenes like this and the sound of the big waves coming in to the shore

And there were also two guys out there, they don't cared about the weather nor the coming storm - that was exactly what they needed for their exciting kite surfing sport!

He came later to the beach with his kite and just started going out to the water. But he had to come back pretty soon, then suddenly the horizon was just black!

This kite surfing sport is big fun, you can see it here - and it was big fun also to watch those guys too!

And then it was time to run to the car, big rain drops started falling....

A day in Spring at Folly Beach

Beautiful colors of the water and the sky and some people were already enjoying the sunshine. This is the place to be on a day like this!

A place, where flying kites are not only for little boys...

A place where airplanes meet the clouds...

...and fourteen pelicans are flying over your head...

and you will find some still living shells in the water

and of course, where hubby has to take a closer look to it too - don't worry, we released it back to the sea.

The place also, where palm trees are giving a very tropical look to the scene - I felt almost like back in Key West :-)

...where the palm leafs have very strong colors...

..where black birds are singing in the limbs...

...and on the other side is his neighbor singing too, a brown bird. Can anyone tell me the real names for these little cute birdies?

Do this plant will have some flowers too? I'm pretty sure they'll do, later in the summer - because just now it's "only" springtime.

It's so much fun to spend some time at the beach - and it's big fun to live in Charleston!
