At the last minute we decided we need some more time in the sand. Our OBX trip was a bit off this year given that Sean missed most of the beach days being sick and Dan and I took turns staying inside with him most of that time. Carter also was off for a few days also though she didn't get as sick as Sean. So, we decided a trip to Va Beach would do the trick. We found an ocean front hotel and got in three full days at the beach.
We left Richmond early on Sunday and had planned to park the car at the hotel and head to the beach til we were able to check in, however, when we arrived at 9:45 they allowed us to check in early. What a nice surprise! So, we dropped out stuff off and went to the beach, came back to relax for lunch and to take a break from the sun, and then went back to the beach til 6 pm when it was time to come in and shower for dinner.
Since it was close to our anniversary (11 years) we booked a reservation at a super nice Italian called Il Gardino. It was close to our hotel and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing! The atmosphere was also very cool and the service was great. We all left stuffed!
What a wonderful first day at the beach. We look forward to two more ahead of us!
