On our way to Florida we decided we needed a "mini" vacation on our way down to break up the trip. Kurt's sister Jen was a sweetheart and made a reservation for us in Myrtle Beach. We spent 2 nights there and this was the beautiful view from our hotel room. We had such a nice view of the beach. Our last night there we took a walk on the beach and saw this jellyfish washed up on the beach. I'm glad this guy waited until night to make his way to the beach. I wouldn' t have wanted to run into him while swimming in the ocean. Ouch!!
The highlight of our honeymoon was the Nascar race at Daytona. On Saturday afternoon we went into the area called FAn Zone, which gets you up close to the pit area and the drivers. Saturday was the last inspection of the cars before the race, this is Dale Jr's car going through inspection. It was so awesome to be that close to the cars. It was just unreal, usually we just see them on tv, so this was an amazing experience.
Before the race Saturday night Kurt and I were sitting in our seats watching all the people down there on the track listening to the band "Lady Antebellum" and decided that we should be there too. We walked down the steel stairs (in the back there) and got to walk on the track at Daytona!!!! The track is so steep that you have lean forward to walk up the track. We also got to sign our names on the start-finish line. This was really just the coolest thing that we got to do during our vacation.
From the track we made our way over to pit road were the cars were lined up to start the race. This is Dale Jr's actual car that he raced that night sitting on pit road waiting for the race to start.
