our trip to va beach

our trip to va beach was really fun. we left here about 230 on friday and got there about 430 maybe nearly 5pm. we carried our stuff to our room and walked out on teh balcony and looked at the ocean and took a couple of photos. then after we had rested awhile from the drive we went and walked on the boardwalk to find us something to eat. then after we ate we went back to the hotel and just watched alittle tv. then sit outside on the balcony some. then around 10pm something we watched some fireworks. i think the fireworks lasted about 5 or 10 minutes. then we went to be because we wanted to be all rested for our pictures we was having taken the next day. we got up on june 12 (saturday) and went ate breaksfast and then started getting ready for our pictures to be taken. then we walked across the street to the is store across from the hotel and bought a couple of things and tehn we went back to the hotel to wait on the lady who was going to take our photo for us. after she showed up we went and took those pictures and then me and mike came back to the hotel and our room and got ready to go to the beach and play in the water. yes of course i put on sunblock on. i was so surprised that i didnt get sunburn like i usually do. well i did get alittle red but not to much. so love that sunblock lol. i was so enjoying watching mike play in the water. it was so much fun. yes i got in the water for alittle bit but the current was really strong and since i cant swim i didnt want to stay in the water for to long. after we had been out for about a hour we got hungry so we went and got something to eat.. then we went and had those old time phots taken that was so much fun. i was a southern bell and mike was a cowboy. i wish we could have afford to buy all the photos but we couldnt. then we went back to the hotel and rested some and went back to the beach. the current was stronger then what it was earlier in the day. i think we had stayed out for about or so. it started to get cool outside. oh yeah the water was cold. but it did felt good though lol. then we went back to the hotel order something to eat and just relaxed. we was going to sit outside on the balcony to watch the fireworks again but there was some people on a balcony a floor or two below us that was being rude and screaming or talking as loud as they could and it was just frustated and not relaxing. then sunday morning we got up and ate breaksfast and did a little more exploring again but we didnt stay out to long because it was starting to get really hot and looking to much like it was going to rain. so we decided just come on home. believe me we didnt want to but we did. we was going to do a sunset boat ride on saturday but we didnt have the money for that and plus the current was really strong (you could see the boats that would go by just rocking). we may go back for our anniversary but not to sure yet.

well that was our mini vacation.
