Panama City Beach
March 22, 2021
We stayed near the beach near Panama City Beach but never made it into town. The beach was our destination! And it was a great beach for relaxing and walking. Not busy at all.
Most recent trips
Natchez Trace and the Gulf
When COVID-19 forced us to postpone our trip to Spain for another year we took the opportunity to drive the Natchez Trace Parkway, a road trip we’ve been wanting to do. We combined that with a couple of weeks along the Gulf of Mexico for some beach time and long walks in nice weather.
Texas Road Trip
We'd planned to go snorkeling in the Caribbean but COVID forced us to stay in the USA. We took the opportunity to drive to Big Bend National Park to go hiking instead. And hit Austin and San Antonio for some urban exploring, and Port Aransas for the beach and birds.
Glacier National Park
Plan A was England and Wales. COVID-19 scuttled that. Plan B was a trip to three national parks (Glacier National Park in the USA and Banff and Jasper National Parks in Canada) but the Canadian border was closed due to COVID-19. So Plan C ended up being a road trip to Glacier. Which was still great!
Fort Myers and the Blue Ridge
We were supposed to be in Spain, but the worldwide pandemic canceled that. So we went on a quick road trip to Florida instead, figuring that we could bail out and head home any time. And we were glad we did, because we ended up doing just that!
Belize
Three weeks of sun, sand, snorkeling, and relaxation at Tobacco Caye, Caye Caulker, and Placencia. With a little rainforest and a trip to the zoo mixed in.

Orange Beach
March 18, 2021
Orange Beach wasn’t really our kind of place. Too many high rises. Too much traffic. The beach and the nearby state park are beautiful though.
Bay Saint Louis

We found Bay Saint Louis a charming, low key coastal town with a surprisingly nice beach.
