Look carefully. What is wrong with this picture?

That land mass on the left in the horizon – that is Daufuskie Island. It is on our list to visit soon…

Went around the island in bicycles. I have not biked in a very long time (30 years)? Nikita took to it very quickly. I had some difficulty in getting the bike to slow down or stop. These rental bikes have no brakes. Took me a few minutes and hobbling down a bridge, desperately trying with my two feet on the ground to slow down to realize that all I had to do is try pedaling in reverse!!
