Tay's Excellent Adventure Part 2

So Taylor was a little disappointed in the weather situation in Alabama as it wasn't quite as warm as he had expected.  Of course it doesn't help that Utah is having some sort of non-winter freakish heat wave so his standard of comparison was a little skewed.  Anyway, we hopped in the car and headed to Panama Beach, FL hoping for sunnier days.

 Once there, we settled in at Tyndall AFB and then set out for something to do.  The temp wasn't really
 conducive to beach going so we hit the tourist circuit.




After a little souvenir shopping for Taylor's friends we stopped for lunch at a great German place.

 We shared an appetizer pretzel and Taylor ordered the schnitzel which was yes, as big as this looks!


Next up was Wonder Works which is kind of like a big kid's museum.  Tons of interactive exhibits, puzzles, rides, and then there was that whole climbing across ropes and such up in the ceiling of the whole place.  Even though we were safety snapped in a hanging harness, I was having some height issues!  We had a great time though and spent several hours there.









And finally my friends, this is the kind of tasteful holiday decorating that goes on in Panama City Beach.  However, since my across the street neighbor in Utah decorates the same way it made me a little less homesick!
