Day Two at Cumberland Island

On our second day at Cumberland Island we rented some bikes and started the trek up the main road to Plum Orchard (built in 1898, a Georgian Revival mansion built by Lucy Carnegie for her son, George and his wife, Margaret Thaw :). This bike ride was 7.3 miles one way, not to bad on our bikes... right?? Unfortunately, at mile 6 Eric's bike chain broke and we were unable to repair it. :( We decided to ditch the bikes and walk the rest of the way to Plum Orchard (and then push the bikes back another 6 miles). The bike ride/walk was beautiful and we even got to see more horses! I have to say I think this place is pretty cool.
