On the third day, we checked out a place called Rookery Bay Estuary. There was a little nature center, which we looked at before heading out on a little nature walk. We were hoping to see some wildlife but didn't see much besides tiny lizards.
After Rookery Bay, we headed to Tigertail Beach, which is known for good shell-hunting. We walked around the lagoon (see pic below) to the beach. While we didn't find any whole sand dollars, we did find pieces of some, which was still exciting! We found many other beautiful shells, including lots of little "ice cream cone shells" as the girls called them.
We followed up our shell-hunting with a delicious treat at Beebe's Ice Cream!

It was a nice trip, but as always, it's nice to go home!
