Myrtle Beach

After our stop at the sand castle, we headed to lunch and then to North Myrtle Beach. All I'm going to say about lunch is never ever eat at a seafood buffet.

We decided to go to North Myrtle because we heard it was less crowded and touristy than the regular ol' Myrtle. It was Sunday and the beach was still pretty crowded considering it's lined by sky-rise condos as far as the eye can see. We had fun at the beach but I think I'll stick with Folly, 10 minutes from home, from now on.



Note our favorite beach cooler Sarah is using as a footstool. That's the cooler I made for John for the Alphatraz date party back in college. Oh the memories!

Me and John reading in our awesome chairs. It looks goofy, but the face and arm holes make it very convenient to continue reading while on your stomach.

After several hours on the beach we decided to head out to find dinner at some better place than a seafood buffet. We went to Broadway on the Beach, the tourist mothership of Myrtle Beach. The whole strip mall is up on a boardwalk and covered with tacky tourist shops, restaurants and something called MagiQuest (sounded pretty awesome actually).

We attempted to eat at Margaritaville, but the line was too long. So we ate at a little beach-like bar outside Margaritaville instead. Close enough!



Those things in the water below us on the board walk...hundreds of fish begging for food! I've never seen anything like that before.

Haha...caught Mom coming our of the Stupid Factory! :)
