So you've been warned, this is going to be more of a photo dump to share the trip.
It was a great vaca! We all had a blast, especially Kairo! We stayed in Duck, NC in the Outer Banks, which is one of the only beaches in OBX that doesn't have a leash law for dogs on the beach. It was completely legal for Kairo to be hanging out on the beach without a leash. It was great!
The days usually started off like this. Kairo heard my parents waking up with their dogs at 6AM, so he was whining to go out of our bedroom to play. So I got up with him, while G$ continued to sleep. My mom and I took the dogs out to the beach to play in the ocean while there weren't tons of people out there yet:
Then, we came back inside. G$ then graced us with his presence. Just kidding, I had no qualms with him getting more sleep - it was silly for both of us to get up at such an early hour! But he was usually getting up, so we made breakfast. Then it was time for family nap time upstairs. Kairo and I slept, while G$ caught up on the news/surfed the internet.
Then we had lunch with the fam. I love the beach, since it's one of the few times I'll actually eat Doritos. I looooooove Doritos, but I know they are horrible for you, especially when you have no self control and want to eat an entire back. So it's rare that G$ eat them, or any other chips for that matter.
Then it was down to the beach for the afternoon. I didn't take an pictures while down there, since I didn't have my phone. But Kairo alternated between digging in the sand and some how managing to throw sand on my mom despite being really far away from her, laying under the umbrella, or stalking birds. He enjoyed being down at the beach. He was not, however, a fan of the water. The waves really threw him off - he was not the biggest fan, and would quickly run away backwards, when the waves would come up to where he was. It was kind of funny. The water was pretty chilly, so neither G$ nor I went in, but my dad and Scott did from time to time and Kairo was very intrigued/concerned/interested when they were in there.
After the beach, we'd head back up to the house, shower, prepare drinks/hors deurvres and enjoy them out on the deck before dinner. This is where I got some super cute shots of my nephew Brandon and new niece Ally, plus of course some more of the K-Man, Abby and Hunter:
It was a great way to spend Memorial Day and I can't wait until next year. Although, we are trying something new and staying down in Hatteras Island, so it will be a new and exciting adventure!
