Drive to Destin Florida

Posted by Dawn at Saturday, August 20, 2005
This morning, went to do the usual stuff. Go Walmart grocery shopping and to the Asian Market in the morning to get Asian Veggies. After that, we made our way to Florida. Actually, we wanted to take a look at Pensacola Beach in Florida but missed the turn to the beach..so instead, we carried on driving and decided to go to the next beautiful beach which is about 40 mins away, called Destin.

We had lunch at Destin town before going to beach..had burger and fries..what else? Then, we made our way to the beach. It is a beautiful area with very nice water.

We parked the car and got our stuff out..but by the time we walked to the beach, it was drizzling. So loser..hehe..So we got back to the car and waited till the rain stopped. We spent time reading in the car as we dropped by the Florida Welcome Centre on the way here..so I got a lot of brochures for our Florida trip in Sept and to read up more on the place. I love Florida...it has so much fun and nice beaches in the area. I love the beach as you can see cos of the water and how calming it looks when I see it. It has also great diving sites there..However, the negative side is the hurricanes. Oh well..

Anyway, after the rain stopped about half and hour later, we got down and set our towels on the sand. We walked to a place where there are not many people. The water is very salty but clear. No fishes though..only seaweeds. I brought apple and orange to eat in the beach.

CT was playing a lot in the water..keeping himself entertained. I just kept snapping pictures away...

I have placed the pictures in my photo website. Go take a look at the beach! (under Destin folder)

Spent about 2 hours at the beach and after that, we drove back. While driving back home, we experienced rain and lots of lightning. The lightning looks real scary in the sky..

Anyway, glad we made it home safe as I read about the couple who died in a car accident in Perth. So sad cos they are so young and expecting a baby. That is why, we must make our life more purposeful and meaningful before anything happens..since life is so uncertain.

So, do you know your purpose of living in the world?
