Ft. Walton Beach, Florida

Last weekend we decided to feed our newly acquired addiction to the beach, and took a spur of the moment trip to Florida.  It was quick (Friday-Sunday), but we enjoyed plenty of sunshine, and time relaxing, doing next to nothing besides eating, sleeping, and laying on the white sand beaches.  We stayed at Eglin Air Force Base (I just learned that military can stay in lodging at other military post/bases very inexpensively, yay!), which was just about 15 minutes away from Ft. Walton Beach (30 minutes from Destin).  It was beautiful, and I would highly recommend the Ft. Walton/Destin area for white sand beaches and blue clear waters.  I honestly didn't realize those existed inside the United States.
