Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Our drive to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, on Monday morning was pleasant, and we enjoyed seeing the wild flowers blooming along the highway. We arrived at Shore Crest Vacation Villas a little after noon and checked into a nice two bedroom condo with a "View" - not much of a view, but we could see the Atlantic Ocean and the beach if we stepped out on the patio and craned our necks around the corner!!





This is the interior of our condo at Shore Crest. Nice place! This is the pretty view of the Atlantic Ocean and the beach from our patio. Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate with us for our "Beach Time!" It was cold, windy and rainy!! BUT, we walked on the beach wearing hooded sweat shirts and with our beach towels wrapped around us! After all, this was our "Beach Time" for the year!!

That evening, we drove down to the Myrtle Beach Board Walk.
Here I am .... notice the heavy clouds overhead and the flags (and my hair) blowing in the wind! Below is another shot of the Board Walk.


There were lots of tourists and traffic in that area and there was a feeling of excitement was in the air!



A new "Sky Wheel" was to open on the Board Walk in a few weeks. The cars were large enough to accommodate a group of people who could have dinner while on the ride. I bet there are some great views from the top! There is always an arcade on any board walk!

The next day, we slept in, went to the resort pools, shopped and watched a Red Box movie in our condo. We left Myrtle Beach the following morning, and as you can see below, the day was going to be beautiful.... sunny and warm! Oh well, we had fun anyway! We pressed on to Charleston, SC for the next leg of our vacation!
