We woke and found ourselves in a most beautiful "resort". Investigating we discovered we were at a the edge of a most beautiful white sand beach. Grabbing our morning coffee we went down to enjoy this bit of ocean. We are actually in Santa Rosa Sound so the water is quiet and calm.
Our goal today is to find a resort on the outer bay so we can play in some wave. "Resorts" are filling faster and we are going to have to make a move to find one. First stop - a beach store to get some appropriate beach wear. Gary and Taryn both got new board shorts. There is an amazingly number of large beach stores here and it's quite easy and inexpensive to purchase needed items.
We called ahead to a "resort" in Destin FL which is right on the open ocean and offers ocean camping. Perfect!. We paid big bucks and took a "beach site". As it turned out we were no where near the actual beach. It seems the translation of "beach site" is "on the way towards the beach" The sites on the beach are called "beach front" sites and are even more expensive....but worse, all taken. Gary was not exactly happy about this.
We spent the rest of the day at the beach. Taryn loved the water and in a short time had made friends with some girls her age from Mississippi. By the end of the day Gary decided we would stay here tomorrow too and just relax at the beach and it was a good decision.
That evening campers gathered outside for Karaoke and this time Taryn was able to sing. She did a great job singing Rascal Flatts "My Wish" and Carrie Underwood's "Jesus Take the Wheel".
