Spring Break Trip to Destin - Day 3

We all slept in Thursday morning and decided to grab a quick breakfast and then head to Baytowne Wharf.  There were several activities that the kids had seen earlier in the week, so we promised them we'd come back one morning for them to do them.  Today was the day.

It was super quiet which meant they didn't have to wait in any lines.  They zip lined across the pond, climbed the ropes course and did the bungee trampolines.

After all the fun, we hit up the pool for a bit.

And then headed back out to Destin to go to the Destin Harborwalk.  This was where we were when we go the text from FISD saying school would be extending their spring break by 1 week.  We couldn't believe it!  Everything seemed totally normal in Florida, but everything I was hearing about back home was crazy!  Grocery stores were running out of toilet paper, meat, milk, etc.  I was nervous about not being at home, but we knew worst case if the airlines shut down, we'd only have about a 12 hour drive back home.  Luckily though, that didn't happen.

Even with all the news, we still tried our best to enjoy our trip. It was nice being in a "bubble" for a bit.

And of course we couldn't go a night without ice cream, so we made a stop at the Wharf before heading back to the hotel.  Shawn and Evan finished the night with a little night swimming at the indoor pool.

We had eaten at this same ice cream shop 5 years earlier too!
