Two days shelling at Sanibel ! Wonderful beachcombing at low tide : so many sea shells
During december 2014, we spent two days at Sanibel, one of the best beachcombing spot in the world ! We should have stayed more than 2 days ! Only one low tide beachcombing will stay one of our best memory from Florida ! We saw a women finding a junonia just in front of us !
