I thought today was a great day
August 16th, 2008 at 09:21 pm by wRitErsbLock in Some Fun Now!First of all, sherlock and I slept in. I did, anyway, and he stayed in bed with me. We got up around nine and went out to the balcony for a little while. It was raining, so we debated about whether or not we would trek up to Seaside or not. After checking the weather maps, we decided to go. A cloudy day makes for a less beastly hot day. Like a moron, though, I didn’t put sunblock onto my face, so my face is red, but at least I did the rest of my exposed skin. In Florida, a cloudy day is a great day to get a sun burn.
I took hundreds and hundreds of pictures at both Seaside and then in the next town over, Rosemary Beach. Seaside is the town where they filmed the movie The Truman Show. My boss took an architectural tour there three years ago. I have drooled over the pictures he took and have been wanting to go ever since. It is such a pretty town. We took several hours to walk around while I took pictures of pretty houses like this:

And this:

This school:

And this church:

It was quite warm, so we stopped for some super yummy ice cream before leaving town. We stopped at Rosemary Beach and had a Realtor show us two condos and one house that are for sale. So not in my budget, but I sure hope my Cousin and CiL buy in this town, as I loved it. I especially loved this building, and took pictures of it from every angle possible:

I had a great time today. I’ll post more in a little while. Dinner is ready, and I hunger.

Seaside is a young Architects dream! Though not so young and not so Architect anymore, I would still love to visit one day! Thanks for the great photos!
