Bluberries and Sailboats

I know, I know... My last blog post was filled with stories about the cutest, most quaint beach town I've ever seen. However, we found yet another perfectly charming beach village. South Haven, Michigan. Not to be confused with one of my most favorite movies Safe Haven. Although, as I have found myself saying much too frequently, this place is DEFINITELY straight out of a Nicholas Sparks movie. Mom and I spent the entire day in Safe Haven exploring Main Street, hopping in antique shops, having lunch on a riverboat, stopping again by Kilwin's ice cream parlor, walking to the red lighthouse, and relaxing on the sand. We even happened to be in South Haven on the first day of their annual Blueberry Festival, complete with live music, food stands, and yes... blueberry cookies. As I strolled through town, I told my mom "I am most definitely living here one day." So friends, I now am officially done googling "Nicholas Sparks looking beach towns" to add to my bucket list. I have found them, and they are simply lovely.
