Wicked Surf and Dolphin Smiles

Spent last week chilling and having fun in Virginia Beach. Our hotel was right on the beach so we woke to the sound of crashing waves and vivid sunrises. It’s an ideal vacation spot for families. Bikes and surreys are easy to rent and cruise up and down the boardwalk. The beach is full of kids. The city offers free entertainment every night on the streets near the beach and in several bandshells. You can see all kinds of musical performances—classical to rock—watch fire-eaters, have your face painted, see a magic show. One day, we went on a dolphin-watching cruise. They swim along the beach and are easy to find. No animal gives me as much delight.
