Our Favorite Place

We arrived at the condo after 4 pm, the balcony was open this year...yay!!  We spent some time on the beach,  grocery shopping, we picked up dinner and ate at the condo and ended the evening with a night swim.  

It was a perfect evening at a perfect place with almost all of my favorite people! 😊

Zander wasn't so sure of the ocean and sand the first time he touched it! 

My sweet water bug! He loves the pool! 

 

Gulf Aquarium

Next stop on our adventure was the Gulfaqaurium while we waited to check into our condo.  What great experience,  they had many exhibits including manatees, sea turtles,  penquins and lots of tropical fish.  

The aquarium was right on the beach,  it was a warm day but there was a nice breeze  we all enjoyed the dolphin and sea lion shows. It was a wonderful time spent with family making such great memories.  We then headed to the condo. 

Such a beautiful family

Amazing photo!!!

Rog and I really enjoyed the aquarium 

 

Off We Go

There’s something special about returning to a place we love. The familiar sights, the sound of the waves, walks along the beach, and beautiful sunsets all make Okaloosa Island feel like our own little escape. The journey may take time, but knowing what awaits us at the end makes every mile worthwhile. I am looking forward to making memories with my family the next week.  

You have to stop at Buc Cees

We always stay in Alabama the first night and just relax at the hotel.  We ordered pizza in and enjoyed time at the pool.  

They look so much alike in this photo

We ate a quick breakfast and continued our journey too the beach.  Aj had us in stitches first thing that morning.  I opened our door to him rushing in carrying a pizza box trying to warm up pizza  that had sat outside his door in the hallway all night.  I had noticed it there earlier when I went down to get coffee.  Needless to say he did not eat the left over pizza lol.
