[@shirleypowell768]

If you haven't visit Savannah GA, if you like historic it's beautiful in Savannah just like Charleston.

[@rikkitabor497]

I have to disagree .. everyone says that they are comparable but Charleston is so much better than Savannah

[@donnamcnulty2347]

Beach vacations are always great to recharge ourselves. Poor Marion! Food poisoning is absolutely the worse. I have I had that twice in my life. Sipping on Gatorade helps to recover from the dehydration . I so enjoyed this vlog. Glad you are home safe . Gods plans are a wonder aren’t they?

[@kristenking2705]

Crazy to come across this video. I actually clean vacation rentals on edisto beach. I don't clean that particular house but I clean a home a few houses down from the one y'all stayed in. It's a beautiful and very family friendly environment on Edisto. Glad y'all had a good time

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Oh that’s so cool! It’s such a beautiful and peaceful place. We absolutely loved our stay, and can’t wait to visit again!😀

[@jamierossi2573]

Hiya Arika & family. Yes indeed it's crazy beautiful there. I seen Madisyn liked that ginormous plant with spikes. It's called a Century plant. Their life cycle is 10 to 30 years. They love heat. Watching the sunset was lovely. I'd wanna take a nap on that sand. I know you guys had a blasty blast.

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Oh that’s so cool! She did love the plant! I couldn’t tell her what it was but we wondered if it was a succulent or aloe Vera. It was huge!

[@j.christian6801]

Looks like a wonderful trip and good food! Wonderful family time! Glad ya'll got home safely!!

[@angeldye4168]

What a blessing to enjoy a beautiful vacation. We have one coming up in August, and I'm ready. ❤❤ So sorry Marian had such a rough night. So thankful God protected y'all on your way home. Thanks for taking us along. ❤

WOW!!! So pretty!! We always try to find different things to do when we go to Myrtle. We lol never cook when there. Just being hubby and I most of the time we eat out. We do have lunch in the room or pack it to take down to the beach. Which one of my favorites peanut butter and banana on the side. Which is what I had while watching this. So sorry Marion got sick. Hope he’s feeling better! And hope Jaxon has a great last few weeks of school!! We have 116 days till MB. Not rushing. Lots of summer projects to do!!! Glad you all made it home safe!!! The drive home always seems longer than going!!

[@deborahhuckaby4623]

Good to see you back, Arika!! Missed you and your videos. You guys went to some pretty places. I'm always content just sitting on the beach just listening to the waves. Very relaxing. That driving in awful weather you had to drive home in I know was miserable and stressful. Especially once it starts getting dark. Glad you all made it home safely and getting back to normal. 😍

[@Chell1496]

Looks like you had such a nice relaxing trip!🌸 I know you like vlogging your trips so that you can look back on them but thank you so much for sharing with us, your viewers. And to share what it looks like there. It’s beautiful! 🌸There were some beautiful seashells on Botony Bay. So sad you couldn’t take any of them. 😢🌸 I love collecting seashells wherever I go and putting them in different kinds of vases and displaying them. 🙂🌸 I have full sympathy for what Marion went through with food poisoning. It is not fun for sure! Hope he is feeling as the days went on. 🌸 what a crazy storm you had to drive through and the fallen tree! 😳⛈

[@DorsettDoorstep]

So glad you enjoyed watching! It was such a great trip!😀

[@jenniferbaker3707]

What a nice vacation in South Carolina! I loved Beach for years. We went in myrtle beach SC for few times. No shells there 🙄 I am glad you all had a great time! I bet you are so happy to be home and see your fur babies! Have a blessing weekend!

[@kathylezcano8793]

[@petro3441]

Wow thanx it was super awesome spending time with you on the beach.hope Marion is up and on the go and his old handsome self again🤭

[@belyndaperry7877]

I'm so thankful you were able to drive home safely through that stormy weather. Poor Marion - I hope he's feeling better. Food poisoning will take you down and HARD. Anyway, your trip looked wonderful and relaxing. Thanks for sharing all the things to do and the beautiful scenery.

[@spilling-T]

I'm 48 yrs old, I've never ever been on any type of vacation, including a no honeymoon when I got married. Watching this brought out so many emotions I cried the whole way thru it. But I figure at least I get to see these beautiful things thru your video. Thank you.

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Oh wow, I sure hope you can take a nice vacation some time. We had never seen the ocean until our wedding day! Now we go as often as we can. We camp a lot of the time. It is very affordable that way!

[@normaotts2260]

We enjoyed watching your vacation. We love the beach. We used to go to Panama city beach and Navarre fl. The whitest sand there. Sorry your husband got sick.

[@sandybuchanan3479]

I feel like I was on vacation too. Hope Marion is feeling better. So glad ya'll enjoyed your vacation.

[@tinapierce8016]

I am so glad y'all had a nice vacation. It looked beautiful! Hate Marion got sick. I've had food poisoning a couple of times it's AWFUL! Am so glad you made it home safe.

[@Kimonwatersedge]

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Looks like you had a wonderful vacation! You were missed🌸

[@abl7115]

I wrote my first comment before I watched the entire video so I have now thanked God for y’all’s safety coming home and for Marion’s healing God is Love

[@aujkalenic4203]

Enjoyed the Beach vlog, so sorry for Mr Marion, God heal him completely! Thx for sharing, It felt like I was there....... I'm an avid shell hunter, love the overload of available shells!

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Oh the shells were amazing!! We definitely don’t have those at our beaches back home!

[@kayjax51]

I so enjoyed your vacation video. So nice that you and your friends have continued to vacation together...it looks like so much fun! A beach vacation is my favorite. 🏖 I've never been to Edisto or Botany Bay. So sorry that poor Marion got food poisoning. That had to be miserable for him! 😪 Karen from Florida

[@JeanneWalter]

What a beautiful vacation spot! I love the beach. Not having to be anywhere or do anything has to be the best feeling! I know you don’t like seafood Arika, but the shrimp looked SO delicious! Everything looked yummy! Poor Marion, I hope he’s got his pep back. Food poisoning is no fun. You’re both troopers, you driving home in that wicked weather and Marion enduring the ride home feeling like crud. Thanks for taking us along! ❤️ Take care!

[@BengeFamily98]

So glad you made it home safely! What a fun trip! (aside from the food poisoning!) we go to Savannah/Tybee Island area most years for vacation. About six years ago we had stopped at a Mexican restaurant the night before we left for home, and I was the only one who had chicken...The next morning as we were headed out, I started to feel bad. Ughh... we like to take the highways instead of the interstate, if time allows, so we can see all of the little towns along the way. Well it was a struggle to find places to stop every 20 minutes or so since we weren't on the interstate. I'm sure all the people in those small towns never saw a lady run to the the restroom so fast! We laugh about it now, but it wasn't so fun at the time! HaHa

[@DorsettDoorstep]

Ugh, that sounds awful! I’m glad Marion was able to travel home without really having to stop.

[@BengeFamily98]

@@DorsettDoorstep Oh I'm so glad the worst of it was before you had to travel!:)

[@amycrawford9726]

Praying for marion. Hope hes better food poisoning is very ruff like being hit by a bulldozer. I am so jealous of the beach so beautiful thank you for all the video being transported to the surf and sun .God's blessings to you all

[@jennifervalentine7519]

I so enjoyed the video, I grabbed my coffee this morning and watched the whole thing, it was like a vaca for me too, lol! I hope Marion got better, at the end of video, he didn’t look to well! I just loved Botany Bay, that was Amazing. It’s always good to go on vacation but, almost better to get back home. Loved all the 🐚 Shells, so Pretty! Thanks for sharing Arika! 💕

[@DorsettDoorstep]

So glad you enjoyed it!😀❤️

[@nancygold2928]

Bottney beach looks like a beautiful area. That drive into the beach, that small road was gorgeous with all the trees. Looks like y'all had a wonderful time. All the food looked delicious, 😋

[@DorsettDoorstep]

It was like a fairy tale! SO beautiful!😍

[@kimpinnock6245]

Hey Arika, so glad you had a great vacay! I live in SC and I love it. Originally from Massachusetts. Don't miss the winter"s up there. Hope Marion is back to normal.

[@cherylmcconnell3167]

[@dicksisutcliffefolk212]

We love Edisto Beach! We used to rent the round house next door every year until my dad passed…haven’t gone back as a family since. Fun times!! We live just over an hour from there so sometimes my husband and I will take a day trip occasionally. Thanks for sharing!
