Day 3... A day at Vero's Beach
We sunscreened and suited up...and headed to the STORE...Island Grove Packing Company for their 9 am opening. DD saw a bucket hat that she wanted for the beach on one of the many you tube videos we watched from the June 15 resort opening. DH wanted a hat for the beach too. We were successful in purchasing both hats plus a TShirt that I saw that I liked. $82 spent already and that was with our dvc discount.
Then we headed back to the room to drop off my shirt and grab our chairs and umbrellas that we brought with us. We were at the beach front row...just down a bit so that we could have our space. I just can't believe that we haven't been here before! We have been to wdw more things than I can count and this place is simply amazing!
The water was 80 degrees and more blue than I imagined it would be! The only thing missing was someone bringing me drinks on the beach like at Castaway Cay!
Everyone seemed to be giving everyone their own space and I felt very safe...except for that one family who let their kids run all over yelling and screaming. The whole family actually was not social distancing and they made me feel uncomfortable. It was about 3:45 and we just decided to pack up and come back to our room for showers,
Obviously, we simply could have packed our things and moved down the beach a bit but we were ready after 6 hours at the beach. However... That one family was our deciding factor. Grrrr.
We have a 6:30 pm ressie at Wind and Waves tonight and I can't wait to eat! Haha
Gotta go get my refillable mug filled up to get my $20 worth!
It won't let me add pictures now...I'll try again after dinner!
