From the kids’ viewpoints…
“After Williamsburg, we drove down and over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge which is 18 miles long. After we got on the island, it was late and we went to bed. Next morning we woke up to some ponies in our front yard! After that we went into town and got a boogie board and when we came back we played in some really big waves.” ~Ben
“It was very fun at Assateague Island. I like the horses.” ~Luke
“We arrived at Assateague Island on September 15th and got in late that night to a state park on the island. The next morning, we woke up to a family of three ponies in our camping area. It was fun to be able to get so close to them, but it was also sad that they weren’t as wild as they should be. There were signs up everywhere that said not to feed the ponies but it was obvious people had. One of the ponies even came up to Ben and nudged his hand. Another animal we saw there was an interesting crab. We found out they were called ghost crabs. We assumed this was because they were murky white and only came out at night.” ~Elizabeth
“We woke up the first morning to wild horses in the campground! It was so cool to see them just wandering around. We swam in the ocean both days we were there. Luke and I had fun playing in the small pools of water because the waves got to be too big for us. We also made a pile of sand and tried to keep it from being washed away by the little waves left over from the big ones. I had a great two days!” ~Adri
