Brooke has a few things the likes to guarantee on a trip. One of those is the hotel breakfast. Its a must even if she has to set an alarm to get there. And she did! This one wasnt as good as some of the past. However, she was still so happy to be there.
There was a donut place down the street called Glazed. The kids thought it was just ok. They don't say no to donuts... but agreed we have ones that are better at home ;) |
We met the Seminaroti's at Hampton Park. It had a little pond and waterfountain and kids playground. The kids mostly climbed all over the old trees everywhere. They were climbable for all of them and it provided some good entertainment.
After all the climbing was out of the systems we went back to our hotel pool again for some swimming. The fist day we had the pool to ourselves and the kids were so psyched. They expected the same today but there were other kids there. Quite a few, actually. This dampered the spirits a little bit. After swimming we parted ways. I told the kids we would see the Seminarotis bright and early the next day so we could do the beach. This crushed all the spirits.
We drove that night to the Kilwins in Downtown Charleston. Brooke was the "spy" and took a ton of photos and videos to send to Dad. We checked out the employees, products, prices and customers. The kids were all crushed we weren't going to see the Seminarotis, and according to Megan ... they were crushed too. I gave in and we went back over there AGAIN. The kids all watched a movie together. They were really happy to be together again ;) And we brought some Kilwins ice cream so it was a double bonus.
