Summer Vacation Day 1


The Trip
It was about a 7-hour trip to Wrightsville Beach from here, including a total of about an hour or so of stops for eat, gas, and Welcome Center/Bathroom breaks.

The Condo

The Houghton Condo was very nice, and alot larger than it looks from the picture. It's three-bedrooms and two-baths are divided into four half-floor levels.

On the bottom is the front door/entrance, an entry closet, a laundry closet, and a side door out to the carport.
From there you go up about 5 steps into the livingroom. To the right of that is the diningroom, and to the right of that is the kitchen.


The livingroom had sliding doors leading out to a nice big back deck, but it was too hot and too buggy for us to be able to spend time out there. I didn't even think to take a picture out there since we only went out maybe once or twice, and not again.

From the livingroom you go up another short flight of steps and there's a master bedroom and bath. The bath also opened into the hallway.
This bedroom was called the Maui room and had a Hawaiian mural on one wall. Also had a balcony, but we didn't go out on it.

Then you go up another short flight of steps to the top floor where there are two more bedrooms, one smaller and then another master-size, with a doorway into the upstairs bathroom.
The upstairs bathroom had a clawfoot tub that I loved! I'm definately going to get me one of those one of these days.

Ryan stayed in the other master bedroom, called the Bonaire room.

Kevin stayed in the Key West room that had bunk beds and a little fold-out sofa.

Here's John cooking us chicken enchilatas for dinner:
