After Cape San Blas we headed north to the Panama Beach area for a few days then traveled to the Destin/Fort. Walton area. We stayed at Emerald Coast RV Beach Resort in Panama City, Florida--stop number two on our Florida road trip. This was one of our favorite places to park the RV. It was very beautiful, clean, friendly and comfortable. They were pet friendly and even had a dog wash area. Our only complaint is that it wasn't near the water, well the beach was one mile away. We usually like to walk or trolley on vacation but it wasn't walker friendly. But it was well worth the drive! Panama Beach has white sand and blue teal water!

We were definitely the smallest one everywhere we went. Some of these motor homes were massive and as comfortable as a house inside. Hmmm.. ..we may be one of those old couples that retires to Florida! |
There is lots to do in Panama City though. We went go-carting, shopping,ate ice cream, did some swimming and more swimming. We even took time to go to Ripley's Believe It or Not to see some creepiness. Right off the beach is a huge shopping and restaurant area called Pier Park. Meatball made some friends at the dog beach and tried his 2nd attempt at swimming in the ocean but still decided sand digging and rolling is much better.

My hubby with the wax figure of the guiness record tallest man in the world. He was 8ft 11.1 in. tall and died in 1940. (and if you know my hubby it's kinda funny!)

Then more beach time… he would stand in it as long as the waves were not moving towards him. (he's really smiling and excited inside…hehehe)
Shopping at Pier Park right by the beach was fun. Well--someone got tired so I tied a large shirt around me and plopped him in it, he was in heaven! I loved seeing the look on people's faces when they realized-- nope that's not a baby but a big eared puppy in that sling!

Enjoying some ice cream, gotta keep cool ya know!

After a long day at the beach it was time for a bath in the dog wash at the RV resort. He was a good boy even though he wanted to jump right out of there. He smelled like baby shampoo for at least a little while until his next adventure! He is one spoiled puppy!
