Homeward Bound

This morning we'll make our way back up to DC to catch our return flight to Anchorage. We have a 2.5 hour stop in Salt Lake City and won't arrive home until after midnight tonight, Anchorage time.

I think this vacation has been a pleasing assortment of stress and entertainment. We've seen lots of things (historic sites, water parks, theme parks, beaches, natural areas, good dining, and shopping). We've also been able to visit with lots of friends and family (mostly family) who have joined us in Virginia.

We spent yesterday at Virginia Beach. We rented a cabana and were given a pre-rented lounge chair which was not longer being used. The kids played in the surf and dug huge holes in the sand. I lounged on the chair under the cabana and read my book and snapped photos.

Pam got some shopping done on the boardwalk and the guys were able to sit at a beachside bar and watch the waves while drinking beer. Needless to say, a really good time was had by all. We should have done that day at the very beginning of our trip just to unwind. But better late than never.


We ended up going to Hooters for dinner. And surprisingly enough, their chicken wings ARE really good!

See you back in the Great Land....
