On our way to Destin, we stopped at a Buc-ee’s. We’d heard it was an experience not to be missed, and it totally lived up to the hype: clean toilets, cheap petrol, and surprisingly tasty food!

The drive to Destin was long but absolutely worth it. After settling into our hotel, we went out for dinner by the beach, and the view was breathtaking.

The sand was so white, the water a perfect turquoise, and the sunset painted the sky in the most vivid colours. It was probably the most beautiful beach I’ve ever seen.

In the morning, my siblings and mum made the most of the gorgeous beach before we had to check out. They had such a great time splashing around and enjoying the sunshine.

Isa and Mama took some really nice pictures at the beach

Then it was back on the road for us!

We stopped for a late lunch at a great Mexican spot called Los Panchos, which gave us the energy we needed for the rest of the drive.
