myrtle day 5 Thursday August 7th





Got to sleep in today and it was some very good rest. We all slept about 9 hours so obviously we needed it. After a good breakfast we headed down to the "MARKET COMMON" which is an area in the original part of Myrtle Beach and right outside the Myrtle Beach AFB, where I landed at least once maybe twice in the early 80's. Now the area (the AFB is the airport now) is being torn down and built up as sort of an upscale walking shopping area with condos above (sorry forgot the pictures of it). Has some pretty upscale resturants and shops, everything the richies would love. But a movie theatre as well which is cool. We enjoyed the Barnes and Nobles, and the Bath and Body works where Julie set the record for most samples tested in 15 minutes.


We had lunch at PF CHANGS which had some of the best chinese food Ive had at least since Ive eaten in Chinatown San Fran last. Very smooth and well presented the place smelled great as well. The girls are acting up a bit in the last 24 hours, putting us at our MAX limit for patience, kind of a spoiled dispostion with is dissapointed considering that A) neither Tina or I are spoiled and B) we dont think we spoil them. Which means its probably a combination of 1) we might spoil them more than we think and 2) they might get attitudes about things from school chums.

We told them our sadness and dissapointment and said that there were people that would be very dissapointed in their attitudes. We will see where that goes.


Anyhoo, we were going to go to the BIG BUCKET water park here at the condos but were told someone had had an "accident" in the thing and it was closed so it was off to the ramp pool. After that we went to MCCallisters for Dinner and during a quick jaunt to Walmart (were coming up 6 eggs short for Breakfast saturday), it opened up raining and you could hear the roof at Walmart rattle. Yikes. Todays pics are from PF CHANGS and its HORSE, Barnes and Nobles and the girls in the car on the ride back from MArket COmmon (cilly asleep, juli not asleep)

until later
