Last week we headed out to our favorite vacation spot,
Myrtle Beach.
As usual, Myrtle was nothing short of spectacular, albeit a
tad chilly the first 2 mornings. And although the 2 mornings provided a cool beach
temperature, it allowed us to sightsee more than we have before.
Our little happy foursome headed out to take in the Aquarium
and Alligator Adventure. Both were huge hits and I have to say, I’m glad we were
able to enjoy the other options Myrtle has to offer.
The afternoons and all other mornings, however, were
completely dedicated to sun, sand and pool enjoyment. It was perfect.
The one change from all our previous visits was our choice
of accommodation. We ended up getting a decent rate at a VERY expensive hotel
and let me tell you, this place was awe…wait for it…some! It’s only a couple years old, was right on
the beach and the amenities were outstanding. We really felt pampered with all
the upgraded appliances and furniture. Definitely somewhere we’ll try to
frequent again.
Lovely, lovely Myrtle didn’t disappoint once again and I can’t
wait to head back this summer.

Alligator farm!
"Do not sit or lift children above rail"
Uh, Yeah, no kidding! (Gator middle, right side)
I bet the gator is thinking lunch is served...
They even had a small pack of wolves on hand.
These folks aren't kidding about dangerous animals
Again...scary dangerous animals... a completely harmless cobra
Rattlesnake anyone?
Laney is showing me how big around the Anaconda snake was...Yikes. She's probably right.
Gator show. My fearless animal lovers jumped right in to volunteer
The kiddos are looking at the most feared and gruesome creature of them all...
....Woooo Pig Soooie!
These turtles were HUGE!
Such a great time! We'll definitely visit again!
Daddy builds the obligatory beach harbor.
I can't express how much the kids enjoy their own little puddle.
Daddy is awesome!
I decided to take a couples-only selfie...right after Dan took a bite of his sandwich.
Sandwich or no, he's still hunky!
We stopped at one of our favorite restaurants to eat and feed the fish/turtles.
All four of us love this tradition. These carp are at least 3 feet long. Huge fish + 2 dozen turtles + 2 kids throwing fish food = loads of splashing water and enormous bouts of laughter
The aquarium!

Such an amazing little boy. We are so blessed with two incredible children.
Spiderman kite makes his mandatory appearance
Laney takes a turn at the controls.
I'll have to get her a Hello Kitty or Minnie kite...
she wasn't too impressed with Spidey
Team work

Peek-a-boo!
Laney plays close up with my phone
Our last day...it's a tradition to walk down,
say goodbye and thanks for all the fun.
We'll see you in a couple months, Myrtle!
Thanks for all the great memories!!
