We woke up this morning with great plans for a nice morning at the beach. But, the weather was not on our side today. We got up, packed our suitcases and checked out of the hotel. We headed into St. Augustine and had breakfast at McDonald's. I had planned to parasail today, but the wind was too high.
We drove to the lighthouse and decided we did not want to pay $18 each to climb 250 steps! So we took pictures and moved on.
We then drove to the beach and enjoyed the beauty of the ocean.
As you can see, it was a bit windy!
We enjoyed watching a guy try to use a surf board and a parachute type sail.
The happy couple!
We knew there were storms in DFW, so we thought we would just head to the airport and try to catch the 2:20 flight instead of our 6:30 flight. We called American and they said we should be able to go stand-by. So, we got there about 1:15 and got checked in. We then found out that 16 other people had the same idea and we did not make that flight. We had a nice, long wait ahead of us. We both had books, so we read. We then had a nice long meal at Chili's in the airport.
6:30 came and went and still no airplane. Our flight was coming from DFW and was late because of the storms. We finally left Jacksonville at 8:30 and got to our house around midnight. It was a rough flight and we are happy to be home and kiss our sleeping little girls goodnight.We had a great trip. It's always nice to go away together and remember that we still really like each other and had a great time together. Thanks, Pa Pa and Gran for taking care of the girls and giving us a chance to get away. We love you and hope you'll do it again someday!
