We had a blast in Florida. I hope to maybe make that an annual trip. We loved the Island so much.
Our trip wasn't without some drama though. I had found a cute little cottage to rent for the week online. Emailed the owners and gave the dates , set up all the payments, etc. We arrived to find out that the cottage was already rented to someone else and that the Owner had misread and misunderstood my dates. So we arrived after getting up at 430 am, driving an hour to airport, flying for 5 hours then driving again for 2 hours to find we had no place to sleep. WHAT? So after another hour and half or more of driving around, sitting in the car , trying to figure out what to do, The owners called and had called a friend of theirs and found us a place to stay. The cottage had a pool we were all looking forward to using, unfortunately, the new place had no pool , but the bonus was it was 4 houses down from the beach entrance! It was also bigger than the cottage with 2 bedrooms instead of 1 and a loft area. We made out fine and enjoyed the week in Florida. Our Anniversary we went to an Italian restaurant and had dinner just the 2 of us. Then instead of ordering dessert we drove back to the house and picked up the boys and went for ice cream cones! The weather was in the 80's and the beach was perfect. A bit to much sun, we all got sunburned in different levels. Of course the youngest got it the worse, poor guy itching and peeling so bad he's miserable. Even after 45 spf sunscreening. He still loves the beach though he says and wants to return.

Sounds like it was a GREAT week, in spite of the craziness with the rental! Happy anniversary!
Good grief! I can't believe that mess you had with the cottage! I'm glad tha the owner did the right thing and found you guys a place to stay.
It sounds like a wonderful vacation!
