Are you a sunrise or more of a sunset kind of person?

Ever the lover of getting out in nature, a day spent exploring Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge was the perfect introduction to Florida. This 140,000 acre nature sanctuary is home to over 998 species of wildlife, birds and fish.

The wildlife refuge, set away from such exciting activity, is a peaceful sanctuary where wildlife thrives. I’ve never seen so many alligators in my entire life, let alone one day! Unlike the crocodile they’re quite shy, don’t worry ☺️👀

The island is also home to an out of the way beach that is hidden from most. People generally go to nearby Cocoa Beach, however this is an excellent choice to visit with its long stretch of beautiful white sandy shores 🥰

Question. You have the chance to be given a wonky, timbered framed moated manor in the countryside or a modern, luxurious apartment in the city. Which do you choose?

Yesterday I hopped on a trolley tour to get to learn more about the history of Myrtle Beach, a city that lies at the heart of the Grand Strand - a 60 mile stretch of natural beauty on South Carolina's Northeastern coast. The first recorded history of the Myrtle Beach area begins with Native Americans, who lived in the region for thousands of years prior to the arrival of Europeans and called it “Chicora” meaning “the land”. Once discovered by Europeans in 1526 its growth into what we see today was relatively slow but by the 1900’s people were drawn by the ocean, sand and trees and began to put down roots here. By 1957 the population had topped 5000 and it officially became a city. The name "Myrtle Beach" comes from the wax myrtle, an abundant local shrub, and was chosen in a name-the-town contest in 1900. Second to Edgewater.

Let’s Have Some Fun Facts ☺️

The Grand Strand has been host to at least 20 motion pictures including The Notebook, The Patriot, Magic Mike XXL and The Nutty Professor II.

Myrtle Beach is also the film location for half a dozen tv shows. One Tree Hill fans anyone? Dawsons Creek? Or perhaps you’re more a fan of The Stranger? Personally I love Eastbound & Down - Danny McBride is hilarious 😂 These shows were all filmed here.

With more than 2000 restaurants in the Myrtle Beach area it would take you nearly FIVE years to eat at every single one if you dined out at least once every single day 😳

The legendary country music group Alabama began its journey in 1973 as the house band at downtown Myrtle Beach’s The Bowery, which is still open today.

This stretch of coastline was a popular spot for pirates in the early 1700’s. Notorious buccaneers including legendary English swashbuckler Edward Teach, aka Blackbeard, used to hide out in the local inlets and attack ships transporting treasure. 
Sports Illustrated magazine was born in Myrtle Beach.

With over 20 million visitors each year, Myrtle Beach is one of the most visited destinations in the country.

Let me introduce you to Brookgreen Gardens in Myrt

Let me introduce you to Brookgreen Gardens in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Voted one of the top 10 public gardens in the whole of the USA 😍 You all know how much I love a garden and this beauty was everything I hoped it would be! One of the aims of the garden is to collect, exhibit and preserve the natural plant life of the Southeast and my goodness, what a wonderful collection they have. The Live Oak trees with their Spanish Moss swaying in the gentle breeze were absolutely magical and I was completely captivated by them. Unlike most oak trees, which are deciduous, southern live oaks are nearly evergreen, only replacing their leaves over a short period of several weeks in the spring.

Fun Fact. Wood from southern live oaks is incredibly tough and durable. The naval vessel U.S.S. Constitution was nicknamed “Old Ironsides” after her live oak hull survived repeated cannon fire during the War of 1812 👀

A dark and moody spring morning at this medieval beauty. Stokesay Castle, built by Laurence of Ludlow at the end of the 13th century from the immense wealth he amassed in the wool trade. Today this property is an incredible survival and one of the finest examples of a medieval fortified manor house in existence. I absolutely loveeee it 🥰 History, character and charm in abundance.

Question. If you inherited a property like this one, what would you do with it?? 👀
