Day trip to Cumberland Island Georgia
Welcome to MooMoo Math and Science and my trip to Cumberland Island.
Cumberland Island, Georgia, is the largest of the Sea Islands of the southeastern United States
The island is 17.5 miles long and can be reached by ferry from Saint Marys Georgia.
The ferry ride was around forty minutes and the staff was nice and friendly.
The island has very limited amenities which include a small welcome center, restrooms, and water. No restaurants, paved roads, or lodging.
Upon arrival, we got on our bikes and went exploring on the main road.
There is a 4-mile hike you can take from the welcome which takes you to a small museum and the estate of the Carnegie called Dungeness. First built in 1884, the Dungeness Mansion was intended as a winter home for Thomas Carnegiehis wife Lucy, and their 9 offspring
We road our bikes on the main road which is a one-lane sandy road to Dungeness. At Dungeness, we encountered our first wild horses. They wander all around the island and pretty much keep to themselves.
We next made our way to the beach and ate lunch near the beach. The beach reminds you what Hilton Head looked like before tourists arrived. It was very relaxing.
After lunch, we were fueled up and ready for a 7-mile ride to the Plum Orchard mansion. This 22,000 square foot mansion was built by George Carnegie in 1898. The park service runs free tours of the mansion and I found it very interesting.
It was getting late so it was back to the ferry for the ride home. Camping is allowed on the island but we just took a day trip.
When we got back to the ferry we spotted a bald eagle which was a first for me. The day on the island was both fun, relaxing, and very interesting.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

Cumberland Island Backpacking Trip 2016
We enjoyed three days and two nights of backpacking on Cumberland Island, 24 miles. We explored Dungeness ruins and toured the Plum Orchard Mansion, which is now a museum. We saw tons of wildlife, mainly wild horses, and beautiful sunsets. It was an amazing trip, to say the least.
