I am so pleased to share Crown Reef Resort with you!  My family and I had the pleasure of staying with Crown Reef and with so many fun and accommodating features, it is hard for me to know where to start.  The ocean front view from my balcony absolutely took my breath away and our room was more than accommodating to my family of 6 and with a full kitchen 3 beds and sofa-bed, and 2 tvs we were able to enjoy a home away from home.  I was pleased with the Crown Reef's location, it is ideal for my family.  Located right down the road from Myrtle Beach's main strip, we were able to enjoy the activities with out having the constant crowd right outside our door.

     "Crown Reef Resort, which opened its first tower in 1994, is located at 2913 South Ocean Boulevard along the south end of Myrtle Beach. An oceanfront resort just minutes from the Myrtle Beach airport, Crown Reef offers the most oceanfront rooms (514) in Myrtle Beach, a large conference center, indoor and outdoor water amenities, on-site dining and more. For more information, visit www.CrownReef.com or call (855) 997-4257." 


   This was the first time seeing the ocean for my 4 children and having the straight access to it made their experience that much more enjoyable.  In addition to having walk on beach access, Crown Reef offers a beach front water park with a 575 foot lazy river, 2 four-story enclosed water slides, 11 indoor and outdoor Jacuzzis, 125-foot pool, indoor pool, 3 kiddie pools, and a splash zone for children with kiddie slide.  The part momma loves most, the water park in NO additional charge!  It is complimentary for all Crown Reef guests!

   In the evenings after our stroll down the main strip or beach we would dine on an ocean front patio provided by Crown Reef's Loco Gecko Restaurant.  A must have would be their Carolina Burger and pizza!  Right next to Loco Gecko is the game room.  instead of coins and tickets load your card up with however much money you want to spend and wipe it through the game machine.  Your points (tickets) load directly onto that card as well. 

Crown Reef Resorts friendly staff, remarkable location, and comfortable rooms made for a memorable ocean getaway.  My family not only recommends this location but will be visiting Crown Reef Resort Myrtle Beach again.  
Easter at the Zoo! The Indianapolis Zoo has so much to offer a family looking to enjoying a day out with their loved ones. For the Easter holiday they held an "Egg Hunt" (egg shaped signs hidden all over the park). You were given a card to fill out every time you found an egg. At the end of your day, you turned in your card for a free prize. My children had a blast finding the eggs while traveling the park to see the animals.
 






I have to tip my hat to the ladies hosting the Dolphin Show. Their hard work with these animals is definitely paying off. The Dolphin show is amazing and my favorite for sure! It has made quite the impression on my daughter as well.  She now wants to pursue a career in Marine Biology.

 I am very impressed with how well The Indianapolis Zoo is set up. You have a clear view of each of the animals as opposed to looking from a distance and searching for where the animal might be hiding in the exhibit.

I hope you are enjoying the photos of the zoo that my family took. I want to make sure to mention the butterfly pictures are taken in the Butterfly House, as my children call it. White River Garden's Hilbert Conservatory allows you to walk through a beautiful indoor garden while 40 species of butterflies flutter around you.  The first time I went to this exhibit I was 18 with my mother and I was so disappointed that my camera could not focus on close up pictures of the butterflies.  Now over a decade later I finally got my close up shots.
