I loved this place!We rode bikes everyday up to Alys Beach.This spot was behind a cafe’ where we would get ice cream.This is one of my favorite pictures ever!What a weird little place! My poor 10 month old always got left out of the big girl fun.

Here is the Sugar Shak.It was quite a popular place with the gals.It was in Rosemary Beach-the employees weren’t the most enthusiastic but the candy line-up was impressive.

Gigi’s was a cool little toy store.It was also in Rosemary-it’s definitely worth checking out if you are down that way.

This was the very first scene i saw when i walked in the door.
