island get-away

my aunt just got back from a 2 week florida trip then carribean cruise.
oh how i wanna be away from home but i just cannot afford a cruise at this time. so i called her up last week, knowing that i will be off this weekend. i told her i wanna go to chincoteague...
as soon as i heard an ok from her. i called my sissy-in-law and planned a weekend get-away to the island.
just less than 3 hours drive pass the longest bridge...chesapeake bay bridge...
and we are here :))














i was at the front desk and i was told that i got 4 connecting rooms. yay!
nice to have an aunt who owns hotels. (*wink)
i choose the room where we stayed with mama last year. the hotel and rooms are newly renovated. all furnitures are new but they kept the cabin interior...which is what i love in this hotel.














the weather is so beautiful. 70's today...
we went inside the island's national wildlife refuge and went straight to the beach.














gorgeous beach. cold water. but arend had fun!














went inside the educational center. just to have something to do.














arend being nosy*





























































then headed back to the hotel to say hello to lightning














just goofing around the property...














the poolside...



















then when tita arrived later on. she said that there was a fair.
free :)) entrance, games and food...
