Beach Vacation - Part 2 - Orange Beach, Alabama

On Monday July 4th, we got up early with the kids and spent some more time at Aunt Wendy's pool then ate lunch.  After lunch we left Santa Rosa Beach and headed to Orange Beach.  We checked into our hotel shortly after 5 p.m. took a load or two to our room then went to look for supper.  I was really anxious about being on the coast the week of the 4th and it being a busy summer but we ate out every meal except for breakfast and didn't have to wait once!  That was a big relief especially with Neil being at the stage he is right now.  The hotel we stayed in was the Hampton Inn and it was built in April or May of this year, we booked in early March so we got a really great deal. It was really nice and right on the beach!

The first place we ate was a place called Bubba's and we chose that mainly because it was only a couple of blocks from our hotel and we didn't feel like driving anymore.  After supper we headed straight to the beach!  Below are a few pictures from our first day at Orange Beach.

First trip to the beach!

Back to the room for bath and bed time




Needless to say they did not sleep in the same bed or this would have gone on all night long.  We let Camden have the bed and made Neil a really big pallet on the floor between the beds.
