Went camping in Destin

The water is a beautiful blue-green, they said. You can see all the way to the bottom, they said.


They failed to explain that part of the reason the water is so green is that algae is floating in it. Everywhere. It was not exactly the sparkly blue-green water we'd heard so much about. We had fun nonetheless. We camped. In Destin, Florida. In July. We're obviously insane.

We stayed at Henderson Beach State Park. I'm sure it would have been spectacular with a camper with air conditioning.

I kid, we did have a good time. So much so that we had to leave a day early because of sunburn and general discomfort:(
We learned a valuable lesson: hotel rooms in Destin in the summer and camp only in the fall and winter! :)
