Beachfront Relaxation…Hold the Jellyfish Please
Our beach time was fun. It was so nice to be near the water and hear the roar. As you can see from the pictures, the kids had more fun playing in the sand than in the ocean.
One thing I didn’t like was the jellyfish that floated in the water. They gave me the heeby-jeebies…(insert shivers). They were all on the beach every morning and we could see them while playing in the water. I’m not sure why there were so close to the shore but I didn’t get a warm and fuzzy feeling from them.
Miniature Golf Fun and Friendly Competition
What would a trip be without a little fun? We went to the Adventure Falls miniature golf course that was on the main strip. The kids and I love this game and the friendly competition.
There were two courses to choose from. So we chose the least crowded one to begin our competition. I got a couple of holes in one and I think each of the kids got one as well. That sent up simultaneous cheers and boos.
The guy running the place was super friendly. He told us about and up and coming singer from Myrtle Beach that lives in Atlanta now. She is kind of young but is recording (probably finished now) a new album. Too bad I can’t remember her name…
Overall the trip was fun. I will definitely go back again in a few years. I think next year we will try either The Outter Banks in North Carolina or Hilton Head Island in South Carolina. Both are reasonable distances from Atlanta and by then my daughter will know how to drive and can help lighten that load.
