Life Is Good at the Beach

This past week Barbara and I took the boys to meet up with their sisters Jordan and Avery at Executive Keys Condominiums in Port Aransas, Texas.  The boys were thrilled to spend some time with their sisters and we all had a great time.  The staff at Executive Keys was helpful and friendly, and we’ll certainly visit again if we get the opportunity.

After leaving home our first overnight was in Kerrville, Texas where we stayed at a Best Western with a nice room and best of all a pool – a must for the boys after spending 11 hours in the car!  Here are some photos in slideshow format:

These are some photos of the kids and the grounds and beach front at the condo in Port Aransas:

The condo also had a fresh water pool.  We typically hit the beach in the morning before the sun got high and hot, then the kids used the pool in the afternoon.  The kids (and me!) had a lot of fun playing in the surf with an inflatable boat – here’s some photos of action and scenes at the beach:

On our last day we rented a 6 passenger beach kart for the day.  We explored the beach and ventured into Port Aransas for lunch at a very nice water front restaurant where we saw a pirate ship leaving port.

The photographer in me made it hard to resist including this “photo-shopped” picture of a strange bird (alright it’s a kite) flying on the beach.  The second bird is real, however.  Hope you enjoyed viewing my photos of our Port Aransas adventure!  Remember to Capture the Wonders Found in Travel and Life!  Please feel free to comment and share my website.
