It really feels like a second home, because I have been to Destin more times than any other city besides Louisville- and I guess now, Bowling Green. Makes me want to go back VERY badly!  |
Aside from my time living down here this winter, I've only ever vacationed in Clearwater Beach and visited Tampa. My brother and sis in law and their kids have vacationed in Destin and love it there. He was just talking about it yesterday as we were discussing our beach experiences we visited over the weekend. I went to Venice with my parents and other brothers and they decided on going up to Longboat Key because Siesta was just way too packed Saturday morning. Destin does look nice from what I've seen in pics but I wanted to live in South Florida when I came down. Hotter summers yes and greater storm threat, but the winters are warmer down here. I'm 4 1/2 hours down from the Florida-Georgia state line and I like this part of Florida down here. The Panhandle beaches look beautiful though too.
