Friday was another disappointing and cold day at the beach. The moms (along with Kara for part of it) ended up staying out at the beach for probably about 3 hours while the kids went parasailing. After laying on the beach for awhile we ended up going back to the condo and watching some tv and reading. It was a pretty uneventful night-we watched the ISU game and they won so that was excited. We all also dreaded packing and leaving Florida for cold Iowa. We also had a little birthday celebration for Carina since her birthday is Saturday when we'd be in the car.
Saturday we all woke up got ready and packed up all of our stuff. We were all disappointed to be leaving and really wanted to stay. We ended up leaving the condo around 10 and were on the hunt for a waffle house for some brunch. We didn't have much luck finding one as the first one we saw a sign for was torn down and being rebuild and then the 2nd one was really busy. So we ended up going to cracker barrel instead. It was really good and I had some biscuits and gravy. Then we really hit the road and had an interesting car ride. At one point there was a lot of traffic and so we were stopped in the road. Our cars ended up entertaining fellow travelers around us and we also took some nice selfies in the backseat. The weather ended up not being as bad as our parents expected and there was just some rain in spots and snow in other spots, but nothing too bad. We ended up getting to Des Moines around 9 am.
