Panama City Beach

Left St. Cloud about 9am and arrived Panama City Beach around 4:30 local time (5:30 Eastern). A long drive. We ate at the American diner and I took the kids down to the beach to play in the water a little. It was dark by that time and the beach is eerie. It's so dark out over the gulf, it was overcast and there was a light mist. The kids had a great time and now I'm trying to get them to go to sleep.
