Wally, they gave us a BOGO certificate for Waterscapes here at the condo
!!
BTW, for the bloody mary folks, Duffy's one down fall might be theirs, okay but nothing special. When we awoke this morning we weren't sure about our plans for breakfast. Turns out that the Holiday Inn had a super continental breakfast, I could almost smell the bacon in our room
. One problem with being an early riser on the Grand Strand is that very little is open when you get up. Fortunately we wasted enough time for Mini golf courses to open up. Played Mayday Golf, four of our group played one course, rest played the second course. Nice courses, and of course I had low score with two under par
Next stop of course was Martin's. Eddie it turns out, only has two outfits in his luggage, so grandma was able to get a couple sets for him on sale @ Martins. I love that store, but I was a good boy and didn't spend any money
.
Headed to Barefoot Landing next, girls shopped and us guys went to Bullys for refreshments
. Fulfulling my duties as admin, I felt compelled to drink several bloody marys and they must have been good because I was happy when I left. Kids had virgin strawberry daquiris.
We had a restaurant.com coupon for Fire Island Grille. Waited for quite a while before we got our food. I complained, so manager was supposed to come see us. That didn't happen, but food came out right after I griped. It was worth the wait, everything was very tasty, especially my shrimp bisque and salad. Atmosphere in the place is also pretty cool!!
Gracie rode the carousel after lunch while the boys climbed up this weird contraption just to go down a blow up slide. Since the place was slow, the operator let them go twice. Then we got our 2.5 pounds of palines from River Street Sweets + 15 free pieces of taffy. Before leaving to check into the condo, the kids went into the Mirror Maze.
Check in @ the Sheraton was swift, and Phyllis and I got a card and balloons for our anniversary. Nice touch, but I would have rather a unit closer to the pool. We are in one of the original buildings of the Plantation developement. We own in the Palmetto, but this was the only room we could get went I booked. Still a nice unit, plus we still have points left for a mini vacation.
After chilling in the room for a couple hours, we left for BATB to go to Yamatos. Reservations were for 6:30 so we were seated as soon as we got there. As usual, the food was good and there was plenty of it. The Hibachi Chef this time was pretty entertaining as well. Always fun checking out the changes around BATB, kids liked the statue girl and the balloon guy. Finally headed to Bilos for groceries before crashing back here in the room. Must be having a good time, 'cause my

! Stopped in Watertown this morning to have breakfast @ Cracker Barrel, they serve such an obscene amount of food for the price ![:ac17[1]:](./images/smilies/ac17[1].gif "Sumo")
! We are presently at the Fairfield Inn in Hazleton, Pa. Ate dinner ate the Damon's on site, not too impressed. Advertised as a sports bar, but couldn't get a bloody mary. One choice of bottled beer and two choices of draft. All three sucked. Fries were cold, fish was greasy and tasteless. I'm sure the meals in MB will be much better. Long drive tomorrow, since our next reservations are in Little River. Little disappointed in the gas mileage of our new vehicle, must not have washed it good enough 
.
! Would have liked to get a little better gas mileage, but I can live with a couple less miles per gallon 
. Trip from Pa.to Little River was uneventful other than the fact that I have to take Lasik in the morning 
!!! Gotta love the rest areas 
. Ate at a Popeyes in Fredricksburg, tried the "gladly pay you Thursday for a hamburger today" but they didn't go for it 
. 
Hope you have a great stay with nice temps and not too much rain.
