Our son and his girlfriend, Laura, rented a condominium at Redington Shores and invited Laura’s Mom, my husband, and me to stay with them. This was our second trip to Redington Shores. Next, is a link to that first trip.
Redington Shores Beachtime
First of all, our time at Redington Shores was all about the beach. Everyone but my husband loved spending most of every day lounging on the beach. It was indeed beautiful.
Our son and his girlfriend never tire of the beach and the water. They are active scuba divers and our son just became certified as a master diver. Also, he is certified as a rescue diver. His girlfriend is an advanced diver. As a woman who must hold her nose when going underwater, I am very impressed by their accomplishments.
Rose is Laura’s mother. She likes to walk on the beach and recorded over 10,000 steps a couple of times while there. I walked with her some of the time, but not anywhere near 10,000 steps.
My big guy is not a fan of the beach. However, he was a very good sport. He sat on the beach with us some of the time and spent the rest of the time at the condo.
The weather was gorgeous a couple of days while we were there. However, it was quite windy and cloudy the other days. Also, sometimes it rained. Yet, we managed to get time on the beach every day but one.
Gorgeous Sunsets
Our days at Redington Shores ended with beautiful sunsets. We had a great view of them from the balcony.
There was also an amazing rainbow after one of the rainy days.
Most of all, we never tired of the beauty of sunsets over the water. We watched them every evening.
Evening Entertainment
Games were a big part of our entertainment. We played Mexican Train Dominos and the card game, Five Crowns. It was lots of fun!
Hockey playoffs also were a part of our evenings. The local team, the Lightning Bolts, won the two games that were on while we were there. It was exciting for our Bolt fans!
Meals at the Beach
Laura was a gracious hostess and prepared us several delicious meals. Additionally, they took us to Sea Breeze, our favorite local restaurant, one night to celebrate Mother’s Day. We really enjoyed it.
We also had dinner one night at Slyce, a pizza restaurant. It was pretty cool with live music.
Snacks and sandwiches were for lunch and cheesecake and blueberry pie for dessert. We consumed way too much food overall and will have to cut way back on eating when we return home.
My Beach Read
I ordered a book from our local library, “The Woman in the Window”, by A.J. Finn. I loved reading it while lying on the beach!
It is about a reclusive woman, way too observant of her neighbors, who believes she has witnessed a crime. The plot twists are masterful and a movie based on the book is currently in development. I highly recommend this book!
Conclusion
It was a lovely time at Redington Shores, but the best part was spending quality time with family.
