At the water

June 14, 2012 by Elaine

On Sunday the water on the Emerald Coast was just as it should be, colored in the beautiful blues and greens that it is notorious for.  I could have lounged in my beach chair for the entire day but some dogone kids wanted lunch and needed to rest, blah, blah, blah.

It was nothing short of gorgeous and simply divine for the time we were there that day.

All that was missing was the cabana boy…

As usual. 😉

So, what else did we do? »

    Every girl needs a big, floppy hat.

    Sounds so fun! Love how white the sand is and clear the water is. I grew up in a beach resort in NJ (next to Atlantic City) and our sand was not even as close to this white!

    Dogone kids and their “needs”. I find there is never a cabana boy I need one either.

    I love your suit, what a great colour on you!

    And where is this place, seriously. We need to go there!

    Why is the cabana boy never around when you need him?
