Grace got antsy while checking out, so we opened up some goldfish crackers for her.
You can see her mouth is full of crackers, her hand is full, and her other hand is reaching in for more. Gotta love that girl!
Usually we end up arriving at the beach after dark - but not this time. We were able to leave just after 10am.

Just after the tunnel in Mobile, Al we caught a glimpse of the
We didn't stop for a tour, but always cool to see - especially during the daylight this time :)
This time we rented through an agency instead of directly from the owner so we had to stop and check in at an office on the drive in.
The traffic was thick on this Friday before Memorial Day.
Upon arrival, we unpacked and settled in.
Our first sunset.
After dark we headed out to hunt for crabs.

The kids love to chase them and try and touch them.
This year we saw some of the biggest crabs we have ever seen.

We also brought some glow sticks down to the beach for fun
Stay tuned for Saturday at the beach.
