Virginia Beach Travel Blogs

Mom and Rick came to visit for a few days in June.  I didn't realize how much of a beach bum she is,  more so than me. 

Time to day goodbye for now to the Historic Triangle and head for the Eastern Shore. To get there, we would use the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. I saw this as one of highlights of the trip. I'd wanted to drive the Bridge-Tunnel for a long time. The 17.6 mile (24 km) highway crossing of the Chesape…

I can think of no better way to celebrate the coming of a new year than with my church family at Wave Church in Virginia Beach, Virginia. It was a rocking good time with fabulous encouragement for the upcoming year. The evening included great music, a uplifting and motivating word from Pa…

I'm getting used to visiting the beach in the morning!  There must be something about the sound of the waves and sand between my toes that wakes me up in the morning!  I don't spend long, just enough to breathe deep and put my brain in gear! On schedule for today is a luncheon at our nie…

I traveled to Roatan alone for a dive trip. Hands down best trip ever!

I woke up really early this day. I guess I was excited cause I was going to get to sleep in my own bed tonight. After the morning routine I started packing and got some coffee at the front desk. After a quick and very small breakfast we were off again. Back on I 95 North towards Richmond but since …

Michael, (MasterMike717) had a birthday on July 17th and I decided to give him a gift today.  So I downloaded his profile photo and went about changing the lighting and making it a little easier to see him.  Happy Birthday, Michael!!!         &nbs…

I don't think I've ever actually been to an East Coast beach.  So we drove the 20 minutes over to Virginia Beach so I could get my feet wet.  First stop was at one of the many places serving cheap breakfasts.  With full bellies, we decided to hit the beach.  My cousin and I laid…

I've only camped once before, and that was a few weeks ago with Dan at Sasquatch - but, ever since then, and with the support of my "outdoors" guru, Dan, I've included camping in this trip.  When I talked to him about it, we both laughed at the possibility that I might camp for more than 50% o…

With summer coming to an end, two friends and I decided to take an impromptu week-long camping vacation in Virginia Beach.  We quickly threw our things together, hopped in the car, and made the eight-hour drive down to Virginia that night. We crossed the Chesapeake Bay and reached Virginia ar…

We had a great time at VA Beach. It was the first time I was there. Although the strip looked very busy and lively, there werent too many decent bars/clubs to really hang out at. There was one great one we found the last night there. I will have to figure out the name and get back to you but regardless we made the best of it. Weather was great, lots of water attractions to do and the 3 person bicycle ride was the most fun we had. I almost pee'd myself laughing so much.
