Pensacola~Day 3

These first 2 pictures are of our campground. We have been staying at the Emerald Beach RV Park which is right on the bay. You can see the water through the trees and campers in the 2nd picture. Those people in those RVs can easily throw their flip flops into the water from there :)



Last night Matt and Robin were walking on the beach where you can find dozens of hermit crabs. They caught this on in the net and brought it back to camp to share. As Matt was getting it out of the net it grabbed him so he was screaming, Kamryn was screaming just to scream and Bryttaney was yelling "You have to put it back in the ocean" over and over as loud as she could. All this was going on after 10pm so I am sure our neighbors were thrilled!



Today we went into Destin again and hopped on board the Hannah Marie for a 2 hour cruise of the bay and a small part of the gulf. We saw a bunch of dolphins almost immediatly...my vacation is no complete :o) Kamryn got 'Captain' the ship so now we call her Kaptain Kamryn.

After our cruise we stopped played in the bay in Destin and did alot of snorkeling and saw some really cool things...but you have to wait for me to get the water camera developed to see those.

Then we stopped in Fort Walton because they were having their annual pirate festival where they reinact the priates overtaking this area many years ago. They had a pirate ship shooting at the harbor with lots of people dressed in costumes from the period. There were lots and lots of pirates walking around. After the reinactment they had a fireworks show which we stayed for. Then when we were heading back to the truck there were some people throwing beaded necklaces from their 2nd story condo so we hung out there and caught about a dozen necklaces :o) So we stopped by a pretty bush so I could take pictures of the kids with their necklaces and unbeknown to the kids a pirate jumped into our picture...it was great :o)
