I'd like to suggest the Bacon wrapped crab stuffed shrimp. OMG good!!!! I go there everytime we're in town. I actually just got here last night with some friends and we are staying in Sandpiper Cove across from Target and tonight we went down to Harry T's and the food was really great. We enjoyed everything we had there, it's down at Harbor Docks. We also like to eat at The Back Porch and last night we ordered calzones from Merlin's Pizza and that food was fantastic also.

How crowded is it? I know I think I probably booked the last available room in town, well at least the last one that iwas available for 1 night only, everywhere else required 3 nights or more an we can't stay that long.

I want to see what this new HarbourWalk is about, looks interesting.

Wellllll.... it's getting pretty crowded. When we got here on Tues there were a lot of empty condos and today everything is full. We went to The Back Porch for dinner and got there at 6 and we were seated by 6:40 so really not that bad for Fri night. Traffic was pretty heavy when we were heading back to the condo though. We're leaving in the morning and I'm worried about the drive but I'm hoping since we'll be heading north it won't be too bad.

Well, we have been and are back. We had a good time, not great, as Dh ended up in the ER on Saturday night.

We arrived in the area about 8am and drove over into Ft. Walton Beach and back and stopped at a couple of places on the way back. I didn't think it was too crowded, not as bad as I have seen PCB. It wasn't even really all that hot either. We checked in about 10:30am and hit the beach by 11am, now that was where the crowds were, but I still didn't think it was that bad.

DH went to Barefoot @ the Hilton and got us some lunch and we spent the day there, I couldn't get him to put on any sunscreen and he wouldn't drink much. We to our room number at 4 and headed back, got cleaned up and headed out for dinner. We decided on Maguire's, we went in and were seated right away, then Dh said he wasn't feeling well, and I asked what he meant and about that time, he passed out, I freaked out and next thing I know we are headed to the ER in FWB, he was dehydrated. So, that is where we spent our Saturday night.

We drove around a good bit of Sunday and checked out Eglin Airforce Base, then headed home.
