Beach Week 2017

We were invited to join Nana Sheila and Papa Guitar to experience the beautiful beaches of the Gulf Coast along the Florida panhandle at Rosemary Beach. We stayed in a great development within walking distance to the pool and shops and a fun golf cart ride to the beach. AJ Kelly and Lexi & Lucas added to the fun times!


The kids enjoyed bike riding, swimming in the huge pool and quickly took to the ocean waves.  The neighborhood had shops and music close by.

Dinner at Sharky’s had, of course, a couple of sharks to pose with.

Syd is not impressed.



Walked along the Panama City pier and the kids got to pet a baby shark that a fisherman snagged. Also saw two dolphins swimming around the pier, probably their dinner time.



Baby shark!
 

Pizza night!


The beach sand was so white and soft and easy to walk on in the heat. And boy, was it hot!



Making waves!







We had a professional sand castle builder teach us the finer points of building an enviable multi-tiered castle. Sydney was stung by a Blue Button jelly fish, you can tell in the photos where she’s holding her arm.



Great trip!
