Everyone slept like the dead last night. All the sandcastle building, exercise, sun and sand did us in. This morning Carson and I walked down to the beach which is .3 miles to sea if the castle was still standing. The base was in tact but it was evident the tide had crashed and rolled over it a few times.
Once everyone was ready we made our way back to the beach for our last full day. The water was so cool it actually caused your feet to ache momentarily. Not may people braved the cooler water temps after the temp drop last night. I decided I would take a plunge and a plunge into a wave I did. It nearly took my breath. Carson was dedicated to refortifying the castle. Ryder on the other hand had his eye on a little girl that was playing at the water's edge with her older sister.
We made our way to the pool for a swim where Ryder and Carson made friends with a little boy named Beckett. They took turns playing the Pirate and the Shark. After playing a bit it was time for lunch.
Today's hi is expected to be 82 and partly cloudy with a chance of afternoon thunderstorms. After lunch we plan to hit a few shops and look around.
Originally we had planned to begin our journey back to West Tennessee today at lunch but changed our plans. We decided to stay an additional 24 hours as Clay and Anita have the timeshare thru Saturday. The journey will begin Friday mid-morning with hopes of traveling halfway and arriving home Saturday afternoon.
