Tropical Storm and Sanibel

For the past week, our Sanibel Island tourists may have been a little disappointed.  Tropical Storm Debby has caused cloudy, rainy and windy days for over a week now.  There have been tornado and high surf warnings.  We had been fortunate to have sea turtles nesting earlier than usual this year and in larger numbers, but sadly, it seems as though most of those nests have now been washed out by high surf.  There is still time for more sea turtle nesting, so we will keep our fingers crossed. 

Hopefully our island visitors were able to get out onto the beach, between rains and find some sea shells rolling in.  It's obvious in these photos that the high surf was not standing in the way of them having fun.

Here are some photos taken on the beach at Pointe Santo, yesterday.
