the royal treatment...

before the sun came up on thursday morning, josh and I were at DFW waiting for our flight to corpus christi/port aransas for the holiday weekend. background -- last year our flight coming home from corpus was cancelled due to weather in dallas. so, this year it was no surprise when our flight was delayed leaving. however, this time we got all the way down the jet bridge literally to the plane door when the attendant told us they needed to change planes because ours needed a maintenance inspection and some serious power washing. apparently, they hit a flock of birds on the way in....NICE!! so back up the jet bridge, moved to a different gate and 45 minutes later (the sun was up now) we were boarding a different plane.

we arrived at port royal just before lunch, ready to eat and then hit the water. the 500' pool is the best thing about the resort. every morning, Papa goes down to scout the best location and secure our tables/chairs/umbrellas. they have a swim up bar, swim up grill, volleyball net and the "Double Surfin' Slide.". And with the exception of a few rain showers and one monsoon, we had terrific weather. it was slightly overcast, mildly humid and VERY breezy, which this pregnant lady was extremely happy about. it is usually 95+, no breeze and very humid.
