At the beginning of March, Quincy had spring break so we decided since we might not be on the east coast for a while we would go the beach. So we decided to go to Myrtle Beach, SC even though the weather had been much colder than usual for most of the east coast. Luckily it turn out to be our favorite vacation ever.
The first day we drove most of the day to get there. We arrived in the evening and decided to go swimming at one of the indoor pools our resort had. Even though it was a heated pool, Jack did not find it an acceptable temperature. Even though he looked cute in his swimming outfit, other people didn't find his crying in the pool quite as cute. After about a minute we got him out, wrapped him in towels, and let him put his toes in the hot tub.
There are no pictures from the next day but we spent the afternoon walking along the board walk and then in the evening tried the pool again. We do not have a little fish for a boy.
Jack still takes two naps a day so we weren't able to distance ourselves too far from the hotel but still found lots of fun things to do. He likes to cuddle for a while when he first gets up especially with daddy.
The third day we were there we went to the aquarium. It was really interesting and Jack loved looking at the fish and sharks. We didn't even have to walk most of the time because they had a belt you could stand on it took you through the middle of the tanks. The fish were able to be on both sides and above you. Jack was fascinated.
We had a hard time getting Jack to look at the camera because everything was so cool.
This was by far the best aquarium either of us had been to. If you're in the area, you should definitely go.
Later that day we went out on the beach. We had bought a kite before we left and it was definitely windy enough to get it up high. Jack really enjoyed looking at it up high, but I think Quincy was more excited than Jack was.
It was pretty chilly even though this was the warmest day there. Jack definitely needed a large coat but had lots of fun playing in the sand.
Behind Quincy you can see our hotel. It was nice that it was right on the beach.
Jack and his silly faces. We spend another day there just on the beach and eating at fun local restaurants. We drove home on the 5th day so Quincy could make it to a meeting that night. We had so much fun and were so glad that we decided to go. Luckily, the cold weather kept all the college and high school spring breakers away and we could enjoy a lovely beach with very few people. Good bye Atlantic Ocean for now.
