Their kids texted our kids that they will be in Myrtle Beach over July 4th and asked if we wanted to meet. Seeing as we had no plans, why not? So we piled in the car, drove 5 hours, and had a great time!
First on the agenda was a banana boat ride. All six went together, and all six fell out numerous time. I was relieved to find all six return in one piece.
Next up was the beach. I was surprised it wasn't more crowded. We had plenty of beach room to set up the gear and surf the waves.
Dinners were always the big event of the evening. We were usually seated in a back room, had complicated orders (split tickets, please), took at least 2 hours at the table, and were really loud.
The kids had so much fun, and they are already wanting us to plan our next vacations together. But with 3 of them now in college, this will be a challenge. We'll see!
