PENSACOLA BEACH

We had Southwest vouchers that we needed to use.  So we chose to do a quick and easy trip to the Florida coast.  It was a super relaxing trip, just what I needed for my week-long break between grad semesters (and after wrapping up a crazy school year).  My wonderful hubby surprised me one afternoon by dropping me off at an incredible spa for pampering.  He'd called early in the week and set up the works!  Thanks, Babe!  You're the best hubby a girl could have!

Area around the Pier on Pensacola Beach



It was much quieter on our end of the beach.
We drove to Destin one day to hang out since it was raining.  On our way back, we took the scenic route and discovered the Gulf Islands National Seashore.  So that is where we decided to go from then on.  The area is protected from development.  It's just east of Pensacola Beach.  It was AMAZING!  As you can see it's gorgeous, and we pretty much had the beach to ourselves!!!
