Fun Activity #6

Romantic Beach Getaway

Although we would have loved to have gone to Hawaii or the Bahamas for this part of our list, we have to be realistic because we are adopting and preparing for a child my friends! Therefore, we ended up going to Port Aransas, TX. It is a cute island 2.5 hours from our house. We had never visited and absolutely fell in love with it. So you ask me, for this activity did you guys:

1. Go to the beach? Yup

2, Would you consider it a getaway? Absolutely

3. Was it romantic? You bet ya!

We left on Saturday, June 15. We wanted to give camping another shot and camped out that day.

This was our view.

Rob got to fly his brand new penguin kite.

Sunday morning, we headed out to the jetty and did some fishin' and watched some sea turtles swim in the ocean.

We then headed to the cute condo we rented for the next couple of days. 

We spent some time by the pool, spent the evening by the beach, showered, ordered a delicious pizza, and ate it on the balcony.

Monday was my big day. Rob woke me up with a tiny cake with princess candles. 

We drank coffee on the balcony and went to the pool. We rented a couple of bikes and went bike riding for about 4 hours! 

We rode on the beach.

We also decided to check out the town on our bikes. 

We rode by the bay and saw some cool boats. 

And of course, stopped by a few places to claim my free birthday drink.

We then cooled off by the pool until sunset. Got dressed and had dinner at the restaurant that was highly recommended by all of the friendly locals.

We had a blast! The only thing that would have made the weekend more special is having a little guy help me blow my candles. Maybe next year :)!
