The weather was so nice at the beach that we spent some time just sitting on the balcony of our condo and watching the surfboarders and the DOLPHINS playing right near us. It was so pleasant to sit out on the balcony in the mornings with a cup of coffee or in the evenings with a glass of wine. There are also boat trips that are available. You can take a “Sea Adventures” boat trip. It’s a 65-ft catamaran to see the dolphins, whales and other sea wildlife. But, we didn’t have to go out on the boat. We could see the dolphins from our balcony. The fishing pier is also within view of our balcony and there were lots of fishermen out on the pier every day. There were also museums in the area but we didn’t get to any of them on this trip. The area has some very unique Historic Houses. And for those who are more adventurous, there are zip lines and other things to do at The Adventure Park at Virginia Aquarium. One evening we just stayed in and played some games. We were tired from our day. Have you ever played “Scattergories?” We also played a couple card games. “Back Alley” and “Fantan.” I had to teach the others how to play those games, but they are not difficult to learn.

Sounds wonderful. The balcony sounds amazing. I think I would have spent most of my time there. Dolpins are so beautiful and it is so nice to watch them playing.

Yes, our condo is right on the beach and from the balcony we could see everything. The surfboarders, the fishing pier and the dolphins. Also, large ships and many other boats, not to mention the sea gulls and other birds. The boardwalk and bicycle lane is right in front of our balcony and we could see the joggers and bicyclists going up and down the boardwalk.

They are fun to watch. They are very friendly and play along side of the boats, but we could also see them from our balcony.

What is scattergories? I have never heard of it. I love the picture of the dolphin. I love how he or she comes out of the water like that. I have seen pictures like that before but to actually take a picture like that is even better.
