I've just returned from vacationing in sunny Florida. My sister graduated from FSU (Go Noles) and is now another member of the adult (soon to be) working population. Oh how I weep for her.
After a 1 day in Tallahassee we ventured to Destin, FL for 3 sun filled days. The water was warm...oh MAN was it warm (82-85 degrees) and the sand was soft as a down pillow in the Four Seasons.
If you're ever in the Destin area - here's some info for your vacationing pleasure:
- Silver Sands outlet has lot's of great stores and the easiest way to get around is by moped.
- Cheeseburger in Paradise has good burgers and food but if you're looking for napkins, drink refills, or a fork, FORGET ABOUT IT.
- George's Scooter Rental will give you a great deal on a 4hour moped rental. Yes the scooters are a bit used but when you gotta rent 4 mopeds, cheaps the way to go and he'll give you a deal for 24hour rental...plus he's a master of all sorts of things.
- Pompano Joe's has great seafood and a fun atmosphere beachside flavor, but if you're looking to high five the lady who fell on the way to the bathroom then maybe you should venture elsewhere.
- Baytowne Wharf is a great place to visit at night and I've heard the zipline is worth the 20.00 :)
I was able to finish a couple more books, eat lots of food, and and drink my share of SWEET TEA (man I love the south). Unfortunately, I didn't make it to any of those east coast haunts such as: Dunkin Donuts, Cracker Barrel, Cici's Pizza, etc. Maybe next time?!
Once I'm unpacked and settled I'll add a slide show of some pictures taken while in Destin.
