Myrtle Beach 2015 - Beach Time

June 6-12, 2015

We spent a week at Myrtle Beach again this year beach at Marriott's Ocean Watch Villas.  We just love it there.  I guess the best place to start documenting our trip is with our time on the beach! Emily was really into the beach this year.  In the past she has liked the pool more, but this year she was all about the beach.

We spent most mornings on the beach.  Usually about 3 hours.  Then we would head in for lunch.  Emily collected hundreds of shells, but every night she narrowed her collection to her favorite 5 and then we returned the rest to the sea.

The highlights of our beach time included Emily's "fishing" trips at the little stream we always sit next to on the beach, finding two real live crabs, finding a jellyfish (deceased), constructing turtle island and hunting for seashells.  She also liked boogie boarding, but that will be in another post.
Fishing!
  
Turtle Island!
We also made sure to take time out for some walks on the beach to just talk, enjoy the ocean and see all of nature's beach sights.  We definitely made the most of our time on the sand.
