The Beach

    The beach is where I like to go  to have some fun and relax as well.  I especially love to go to Panama City Beach, Florida.  I love to go there because I lived there for 9 years and my best friend lives there.  When I go to Panama City Beach we go play miniature golf, go to the beach, and go to Pier Park.  It is so much fun at Pier Park.  They have all kinds of stores. places to eat, some rides, and even a small beach area of its own.   But, their small beach area does not come close to the real beach.  Panama City Beach truly has the best beaches.  The sand is the whitest and softest. The water is the bluest and the cleanest, and there is always something to do.  Do you like the beach?   If so, what do you like the best about it?

  1. I love to go to the beach. I have only been to Panama City Beach one time, because Gulf Shores is so close. When I was in Junior College at Faulkner State, we would make weekly trips to the beach. I think the one thing that I like most about the beach is that it gives you a feel of peacefulness. It just seems like all of your troubles and worries just disappear.

  2. The beach is one of my favorite places also. My family and I vacationed in Panama City Beach last October. The weather was glorious with minimal humidity. Listening to the waves crash on the shore is very relaxing and therapeutic. It's a wonderful place to go to relieve stress and get away.

  3. You are right! I love the Panama City and Destin beaches because of the teal blue waters, the white sandy beaches, and the atmosphere is delightful. It sounds like we have quite a bit in common because my favorite place to go is the beach. Something about sitting there listening to the waves, feeling the sand under my feet, and watching the sunset makes me never want to leave. Something tells me if I owned a beach house I would have a hard time getting up off the beach and leaving to go to work each morning!

  4. I absolutely love the beach too! My parents bought a camper a couple of years ago for our whole family to enjoy. We leave it parked at the Gulf most of the summer. It is so nice just to hop in the car and ride over for a small getaway. There is nothing more relaxing to me than to hear the waves crashing and enjoy some great seafood.

  5. i am glad to hear that the beach is as special of a place to go for all of you as it is for me. It is my PLACE OF BEAUTY! The warm sand, the cool water, and the soft sand makes it the most wonderful place to go. I go to Panama City Beach every spring and summer break.

  6. hey Everyone,

    I hear the weather at PCB is really nice today. It is sunny and hot, but not as humid as it is hear. I know a lot of you go to Gulf Shores, but if you feel like traveling a little bit farther sometimes go on to PCB. I know you will like it, especially Pier Park.

  7. Angie,
    I haven't been there but I like the boardwalk with all of the shops. I don't remember the name of it but its the place where all of the boats pull up and everyone is floating around in the little inlet area. PCB is so pretty we love driving down past it to get to Navarre. That's such a pretty drive!

  9. I also love the beach! Panama City is beautiful, but I rarely get the chance to get down there. My family has a place in Orange Beach and that's my favorite weekend place to go. I'm going there this next weekend because I'm in need of some relaxation! I will try to take some pictures and add them to your blog next week!

  10. Angie,
    I am sorry I confused you. I was actually confusing myself with PCB thinking about Pensacola Beach. I love going to any beach but we do visit Pensacola Beach on the way to Navarre because it is such a long pretty drive down by the beaches. It was really fun a few weeks ago we didn't want to turn around and go home so we kept driving. We ended up in Destin. I asked my husband if he cared if I just kept on driving down to Panama City and he reminded me of what time we were already gonna be getting home. I decided to save it for another day.

  12. The other day I went to Dauphin Island and was walking on the beach when I came upon a hammerhead shark that had washed up on shore. I stood there looking at it thinking how sad it was that shark had to die. I still wonder if it has anything to do with the oil spill.

  13. I am headed to the beach tomorrow! We are going to Dauphin Island for the weekend. My grandmother lives on ths island, and we are going to visit her. She actually is going to be making my curtains for my new classroom. Hopefully, our trip will be relaxing and productive!

  15. Angie,

    I love the beach. I find it one of the most relaxing environments in the world. When I'm not watching my girls play in the water, I am reading a good book and dozing in the sun. I am sorry to hear about the shark as well that you found on Dauphin Island. I often wonder how much damage has truly been done to our beaches as well. It is a shame that we will likely see the affects of the oil spill for many years to come. Thank you for sharing about your trips to the beach. It motivates me to go.

  16. I may be the only person who can say this, but I prefer the beach in the Fall and Winter. My favorite thing is to sit on the balcony overlooking the beach, listen to the waves, and drink a hot cup of cocoa with my hubby. After graduation (Dec 2009), Sean and I sent a few days at the beach, bought a blowfish Christmas ornament, and enjoyed every minute of it!

  17. I know I must be getting too old to enjoy the beach especially in 95 plus degrees. We went to Orange Beach this past weekend and I thought that I wouldn't make it back to the walkway carrying all of my beach stuff. My feet were smoking! I was huffing and puffing. Barely moving-not a pretty site. OMG it was soooooo hot!

  18. Yeah,i know what you mean. The beach seems to get hotter and hotter every year. Like Megs said, lately, when I am at the beach, I go to the beach some, but for the most part, Iperfer to sit on the balcony and look out across the ocean, especially when I see dolphins in the morning,

  19. I agree that is the best way to do it but my husband's company condo has been rented since like April. We are gonna have to take off and spend a few nights because day trips are too HOT!
