Naples, FL Gettaway....

  DAY 1: We arrived in Naples with enough time to hit the beach before sunset and then grab dinner.  We found a great little Mexican place- Mr. Tequilas- that I'm sure we'll return to.  It was the perfect way to start the trip.

DAY 2: We slept in and meandered down to the beach after lunch.  We thought 30spf would do it, but after about 4 hours both of us had some pretty sunburned spots.  Poor Holly's back got burned pretty badly.

DAY 3: Due to the sunburns, we decided to take the day off from the beach and drove around til we found a ritzy mall down I-41.  Along with the usual shops like Gap, Banana Republic, and Starbucks, this mall also held higher end places like Tiffany & Co, Saks Fifth Ave, and Neiman Marcus.  It was fun just to wander and do what girls do best- Shop!
After exhausting ourselves from shopping, we headed home to shower and throw on some cotton dresses to head down to a local favorite- The Dock.  This restaurant is right on the water and all the windows are open to the sea air.  We picked a perfect night to go.

DAY 4: Back to the beach armed with some spf50 for the previously sunburned skin.  We only spent 3 hours this day, then cleaned up and headed back to watch the sunset. It was spectacular that night!




DAY 5: Last day at the beach so we were determined to relax and stay as long as we wan....or as long as the meter was filled with quarters.



Over all...it was such a fun gettaway with my friend! 
Now onto 12/12 Holly! :)
