Destin Day Four

Our last day of vacation, we all headed off to the pool once again. It was rainy off and on that morning and we thought it had passed but it did start up again a few times while we were at the pool. We just sat under the canopy for a few minutes and waited for it to pass then back in the pool we went. We had a good time spending the morning there and sadly didn't get any more pictures of us or the pool.

We decided to have lunch at the La Cocina restaurant again so Mamaw and the kids could enjoy it. Well and me too since all I had the night before was chips and a margarita. This time we ate inside and we really enjoyed our lunch.

Then we headed back to the room and put the kids down for a nap and while they napped Craig and I headed to the beach for really the first and only time. It was really nice and relaxing - the breeze was nice as were the occasional cloud cover. We got some sun while listening to music and flipping through magazines. Then, Craig and I went into the water and had a great time riding the waves. And let me just tell you about the sea weed... It was EVERYWHERE in the water! We overlooked it and had a good time anyway. When we got back to the room, I discovered I brought some sea weed home with me (in my bathing suit) as a souvenir. :)
After getting cleaned up, we then went back to Seaside to thoroughly look around and eat dinner. This was the tower thing leading to the beach right next to Bud & Alley's Pizza Bar.

This was where we ate. There were several of these trailers lined up serving food and drinks. It was a nice, light meal after having such a heavy lunch. I don't think I will ever forget Mamaw's 10 dollar corny dog. I think I paid less for a sausage on a stick.

After we finished dinner and window shopping, we stopped by for some frozen yogurt. Here is Craig waiting with the kids for Mamaw to get the yogurt.
On the way back to the room, we swung by the pool so I could get a picture because I knew it was really pretty all lit up at night. I can't believe I didn't get a picture of the pool during the day time...it was so pretty. :( Of course the picture doesn't do it justice but here is what it looked like at night - well, just one small portion of it. Then off to bed - a long day ahead as we pack up to leave and another 16 hours in the car! The drive home post coming up!
