Day 8
The world didn't end but it was very windy and the seas were very "angry" this day. Swimming was a challenge and a lot of fun
I love the beach dogs, it amazes me how well behaved they areThis girl was so sweet, I just touched her ear to pet her and "flip" she was on her back...
She was one of the few females we saw, and the only one that really begged for food, but she was pretty thin. That just broke my heart, next time I have to remember to bring some dog food. I did manage to get her a good drink of water though...
Really nice sunset this day
We played tourist and went to Margaritaville for dinner. It was extremely quiet to say the least, but the margaritas were perfect and the food was good (we shared some appetizers - coconut shrimp, wings and a lobster dip). The service was excellent, very attentive and friendly. I wasn't expecting much, but I was pleasantly surprised.
Glad to hear you enjoyed m'ville!! Fun place to hang out! Jimmy's place scares some folks on these boards to death, but its not so bad..lol. Best onion rings I have ever had.
I'd go to m'ville in a heartbeat! Hell I'd even buy a t-shirt!!

So, I think it's time to wrap this up...
Our last day in paradise, so our plan was to eat everything we could on the beach. Mr. Nutz skipped breakfast so he could get himself a lobster on the beach. Well, as luck would have it, no lobster man that day. It was Sunday, but I suspect the seas were too rough for them to get to their traps, so no lobster. No patty man either, although we only saw him once in our 5 days there. Oh well, next trip! I did manage to get some ice cream, and wow, was that a surprise. It was the perfect temperature and oh so good!
They had their 1st wedding at Country Country this day, it was at sunset and they did a great job of setting things up.
I had brought some Clamato Juice from home, so I brought it down to the bar and had Ceasar's. We actually had fun at the bar that night, the staff was all loose and happy because of the wedding. Dinner was shared conch fritters, Curry Coconut Shrimp for me and Beef Tenderloin for Mr. Nutz. As always, the food was very good and those were probably the best shrimp I'd had this trip.
Day 10 - Time to go home
We were packed and up early, Rocky was picking us up at 7. Ready to go by 6:30, we headed down to the beach for one last look.
Back to the room to get our suitcases only to realize that we'd managed to lock ourselves out. The rooms at Country Country have 2 sets of doors, the key opens the front door. All the doors have bolts on the inside that you can lock at night. Sounds good right? We had gone out the side door, locking it behind us, but the front door was still bolted. We had the key, but with the door bolted, we weren't getting in any time soon.
The office doesn't open until 7 AM, luckily for us, the girl was early. She made a call and the maintenance man came and got the door open for us. Rocky was early, but by 7:15 we were on our way.
The ride to the airport was VERY quiet, neither of us wanted to go home. We both just took in the sights in silence. Only in MoBay are there street signs with a KFC bucket on top...
We arrived at the airport at 8:30 and couldn't believe how dead it was!
We checked our bags with no line up, stepped outside for one last breath of warm air and went through security. We were sitting having breakfast by 8:50! Duty free shopping and then one last drink at Margaritaville (well, it was 5 o'clock there lol).
I can safely say I did not want to go home! Until next time...
Thank you for the trip report! Wishing you good health in 2013!
