After a long night of howling winds and power outages that made the hotel room hot as fudge, Saturday morning greeted us with beautiful skies and warm temperatures. Storm damage was minimal and it was time to play! After a quick breakfast and shower for mommy, we got our bathing suits on and headed down to the beach. Atlast.....paradise. It is so amazing to me how the sound of the waves and the sight of the kids playing so contently on the beach can be so relaxing. The boys had fun making sandcastles and Brendan liked jumping in the waves. Kaleb is a bit more reserved and was not impressed with the ocean.
After a fun morning at the beach, we headed in to take showers. We went to Tony Roma's for lunch and then we went to Ripley's Aquarium, per Daddy's request. He loves it there. Brendan was intrigued by the sharks and Kaleb liked the sting rays. As always, the animals were amazing to watch and we had a great time.
We stopped by the park at Broadway @ The Beach and let the boys play for a while. Then, it was off to Ben & Jerry's for some much deserved ice cream--for the boys anyways. Ice cream doesn't seem to like dieters for some reason. :-)
For dinner, we went to Planet Hollywood. We go there every year and just can't get enough of it. It's not even the food that makes it so attractive, it's the environment. Brendan's favorite part was seeing the Power Rangers and Super Girl! How awesome!
By the end of the night, I was definitely looking forward to sitting out on the balcony for a bit and then drifting off to sleep in the cozy bed. With two excited kids ready to play, morning will probably come to early!
