The Beach


Laura and I finally had an opportunity to escape last weekend just the two of us for a quick 3 day getaway to Myrtle Beach. It was the first time just the two of us had gone away as stress free as we can be, in quite a long time. The first night we were there we hit Angelo's which is supposedly home of the best steaks in the universe. I'm not sure I can confirm that as I have not tried all of the steaks in the universe, but I must say it was a really good steak. Later that evening we took in a show at the Carolina Opry, which is currently doing a show called Good Vibrations. They basically recreate songs from the 60's, 70's and 80's and have dancers and visuals, laser lights and other assorted entertaining props. We really enjoyed this although being that most schools are back in, we seemed to be by far the youngest folks there, although we probably knew more of the music than the majority of people there. We spent the next couple of days relaxing, people watching, and actually never made it down to the actual beach as we had such a great view of the beach and ocean from our room. We were on the 9th floor and enjoyed a spectacular view both eastward and westward. All in all a nice little getaway before we really get thick into both school and work the next few months.
