Camping = fantastic - tons of quality uninterrupted time, very few electronics, no tv.
Camping in July = not fantastic. Note to my family - if I even THINK about mentioning it punch my face.
Indiana beaches on a not 1,000 degree day = fantastic, beautiful. Sans huge waves you could trick yourself into thinking you're in Florida - we even found seashells! But it has a beauty of its own with the dunes and trees. (remember West Beach) favorite!!
And the drive - you can't beat it!!
Plan of attack for the future knowing what we know now - because we decided we will be making this a trip once or twice a year includes:
A) hotel for one to two nights, beach everyday (Hampton looked nice - skip the Dollar Motel {sketchy even for $34/night})
B) day trip
C) camping?!? Questionable because it's so unpredictable, although the jellystone was great. I think we'll stick to our local campgrounds just in case
D) a week in a beach house with a group
And to bring covering for the beach like and easy up, half tent, or umbrella.
We declared this the best vaca under our belt yet. No regrets, a few moments of at each others throats! But no harm done! Thanks to my fam and the whole group - tons of great memories made! Love y'all and miss yas already!
