Gulf Coast-Day 1
We made the 5 and a half hour trip to Destin successfully and without incident. (though we were bummed when we initially forgot that we crossed over into another time zone and were excited that we made the trip in only 4 hours)
Our condo is great and really roomy. Ridge loves the fact that he gets to "adventure sleep" on the fold-out couch at night. The really good news that the beaches are beautiful, white, clean and oil free. The oil slick is looming out there on the horizon but the currents and the winds are keeping it away from Destin for now.
Yesterday we hit the beach around 2PM. Ridge was initially excited to see the ocean but the intense heat of mid-day and the waves soon took their toll and he was ready to go in about an hour later.Colton on the other hand could have stayed out there all day shoveling the sugary sand into his mouth. After lunch D and Colton ran to Publix to load up on food supplies for the week while Ridge and I went to the pool. We ate dinner at The Summer Kitchen and afterwards strolled around the town of Rosemary Beach.
Looks like we're in for a fun week, we just need to learn to pace ourselves with the kiddos.
