A Case of the Muendays

Anniversary vacations ROCK!! The only sucky part is having to come back. . . and go back to work. . . on a MONDAY. blephsch!!

We love beaches and we'd never been to South Carolina, so a condo in Myrtle Beach was our home for 7 days. Oh what fun!! There was sooo much to do and the weather was awesome (thankyou God) and the people were real nice (or "nass" if you're southern - *cough* Derek *cough*)

One of the first things we did when we got there was go to a Pelicans baseball game Sunday afternoon. They are the minor league team of the Braves. Josh had a hot dog and I did not.

Our one year anniversary was on Monday May 1st and we went to the show Le Grande Cirque which is a lot like Cirque de Soleil. We had our seats reserved and they were awesome! Middle section, second row, on the aisle, baby! Oh Yeah, they were good seats. . . if "good" means getting called up on stage by the mime that entertains the crowd between acts and having him flirt with you in front of hundreds of people you can't see cause of the blinding lights, but you can hear them laughing hysterically. And then watching the mime take your husband to center stage and make him dance in front of those same hundreds of people. And then having the mime whom you've never met ask you for a kiss and when you finally agree to kiss his cheek, he plays the dirty trick of quickly turning and planting one right on your mouth!! (sorry Josh!) Too bad they didn't allow flash photography.

Another highlight for me were the ducks. There were ducks everywhere we went! We bought 2 big loaves of white bread (I normally stay away from the nasty crap, but I'm pretty sure it's healthy for ducks) and we provided many meals for ducks living on the streets of Myrtle Beach. I feel good about doing that.


We learned that Myrtle Beach is the Golf Capitol of the World so we had to participate in the local past time. I scored BIG too!!

And it's not only the golf capitol of the world, but also the "huge cheesy touristy beach store" capitol. (Yeah, even more than Daytona, which is bad.) There was literally one every 2 blocks!! We reluctantly visited one of these neon nuisances very briefly for the sole purpose of some high quality post cards. We got a little distracted. . .

. . . and for those of you expecting a beautiful beach postcard from us, sorry, they were just too cheesy (at least I thought about it, Derek!)


Our sweet condo resort had 3 outdoor pools, 2 indoor pools, 2 jacuzzis, and the best part - one 400 foot lazy river! This is right before their busy season starts so we basically had it to ourselves. It was naaaass ;)


I have more cool pics but they are on our computer at home so I'll post them another day. NOT on a Monday.

( *Note: sorry all these pics are small and not large like I told them to be since "Blogger" is sometimes rebellious and makes me want to karate kick it into outer space!!! I'll try to change them, but for now just use your Go-Go Gadget eyeballs to zoom in. )
