Hey
everybody,
For some of us, this was the first time to swim in an ocean! For most of us, it was also the first time we saw the Atlantic. At 9 am, we went to Myrtle Beach in South Carolina and spend most of the day at the beach; playing games, enjoying the sea, and getting a nice tan (or sunburn). ;) Myrtle Beach is one of the oldest and most famous public beaches in America, and its charm soon won us over.
For most of
the guys, it also was the first opportunity to play some soccer (AKA football)
and beach volleyball. Many people also
were taught how to throw an American Football! (Getting the spin right was very
difficult). The day was so hot that sweating also occurred, but therefore the
cold seawater seemed even more refreshing!

At 3:20 pm,
beach-time was over, and we returned to the hotel to freshen up before we went
to “Broadway at the Beach”. Broad way at the Beach is a big collection of
stores and attractions in Myrtle Beach, attracting all kinds of people. We
spent our time shopping checking out all the stores and different kinds of
foods that were sold.
My favorite store was an amazing Candy shop with a huge
selection of chocolate covered everything, sugared candy, gummy bears, any other
type of candy you can think of. We had dinner at Planet Hollywood, a restaurant
similar to the “Hard Rock Café” but with a Hollywood theme. The restaurant hosts
a big collection of memorabilia of different movies, such as Star Wars and Top
Gun.
After dinner,
we once again returned to the hotel and decompressed at the pool and in the jacuzzi. We are
looking forward to a goodnight of sleep after a long day… Tomorrow it’s “wakey
wakey belo!” as we drive 10 hours down to Orlando, Florida, to visit DISNEY WORLD! It is hard to believe that the trip is almost over!
