Columbus Day Weekend Beach Trip

We left EARLY Friday morning to drive to Panama City Beach. Matthew and Courtney followed us. We got there about 10:30am and spent the day on the beach. I have never been to PC when the water was so clear and there were no waves. It looked like you were at a lake. The water was so blue that you could look down and see all the ripples in the sand. There were also TONS of hermit crabs in the ocean. I have never actually seen them living in the ocean - usually they are just in cages at the touristy stores. We stayed in a 2 bedroom condo that overlooked the water. It was so nice just to be lazy for 5 days! We left to come home around noon on Tuesday. Jacob and Mom were there the whole time with us, but Matthew and Courtney had to leave on Sunday to go back to work/school and Dad left Monday afternoon to go back to work. We even had a photographer take our pics on the beach for us. I will post the proofs in another post.
