The Last Destin(ation)

So, the last stop on our trip was Destin, FL where we stayed with my Great Uncle who has a house right on the canals. We were very excited to be spending time with him and his wife, and were also thrilled to find out that his son (my second cousin once removed?) and all of his family would be down there as well. It was quite a full house! However, Court and I didn't end up staying in the house......We got the pleasure of staying outside in the BOAT--which was awesome!

Our boat accommodations--
One of the most fun things we did was hang out on the bow at night with a glass of wine and listen to the fish jump in the canals.

Heading out on the "little boat" to Crab Island.

Since it's the end of our trip and I am--believe it or not--really tired of photographing everything, we didn't get a lot of pictures. However, we did do a lot of fun things. Although the weather was not great at first, we did end up getting to spend some time on the beach and at Crab Island--which is a huge sand bar right in the harbor where the water is crystal clear blue and the sand is completely white. To be honest, though, I spent most of my time on the YOLO board cruising through the canals.....

After two full days at the beach, we packed up the Hyundai for the last time and cruised up I-85 back to Charlotte. HOME, SWEET QUEEN CITY (for a few days)! Then, we head up to Chapel Hill to start at our respective schools.

Thanks for checking in on us for five and a half weeks! If you're reading this blog you are either related to us  or at least like us, so I'm sure we'll be seeing you soon.

Much love,

Courtney and David
