Myrtle Beach Vacation


We celebrated our 10 year anniversary at Myrtle Beach, SC the week of September 5-10. There was the possibility of hurricane effects that week, but it turned out to be just beautiful. We stayed at a resort with a room overlooking the ocean and lots of amenities including pools, lazy rivers, tennis, mini-golf, etc. We had a wonderful time. :)



We enjoyed many beautiful views of the ocean and sky.


One of the fun things we did was attend a dinner theater
called the Pirates Voyage (pirates are a big thing there).
This was started by Dolly Parton. It used to be the Dixie Stampede, and was just this year converted into the Pirates Voyage.
It's set up as a competition and you cheer for the side you're on.

There were seals outside the Pirates Voyage.
A couple of them did tricks as part of the show.

You can kind of make out the set of the pirate's ship.
There was water surrounding it.
The show included lots of awesome gymnastics,
acrobatics, diving, and fire stuff!



We enjoyed a few rounds of tennis one of the mornings.



We had fun making a castle and fortress,
and many people stopped to take a look. :)




This gorgeous sunrise was on the morning we left.
The sun was completely bright pink.



Floating along the outdoor lazy river....





We stopped by this produce stand in SC on our way home.
We bought peaches and got to try boiled peanuts!



It's blurry, but this is a field of cotton.
