We took a break from park hopping on Saturday, May 21st to head over to Clearwater Beach. It's on the gulf coast just outside of Tampa and it's our favorite beach to go to when we're in Orlando. I, of course, still traumatized from my stingray sting last year at this very beach did not venture into the water but we had a great day!
You'd think my kids were born at the beach, they absolutely adore it! Avery cried when we left because she didn't want to go:(
My pretty girl (I could never get a good picture of Spencer)! About 2 seconds in to being at the beach, Avery's suit broke (you can see the supposed halter strap had just broken when I snapped this)! It was the first time she had even worn it. Luckily, I was able to tie it and she made it through the day without any peep shows-phew!
The most fun to be had was looking for shells:) We brought back a whole baggie full of them and I was more than happy with this activity because it allowed me to get my feet wet and be with my family without having to actually be IN the water:)!!
A quick family picture! I wasn't able to get many photos at the beach because my phone kept getting sandy, but we had such a nice relaxing day-it was a great break from the scorching heat inland! Plus, on the way back we stopped at Five Guys for dinner-our first experience. I have always been reluctant to go there, but then I found out they make wonderful grilled cheeses! It was so good, I'm hooked!
One more post about our birthday trip and it's done!
