Still Spring Break in Destin

Destin is having one more busy week of Spring Breakers. Things should start to settle down a little before we ramp up big time the end of May.

Sunshine Cindy and I got out on Tuesday for a while. We headed to Anglers to take in some views of the Gulf and have a few cold drinks. The parking lot was packed. We had to park close to the Boardwalk as Spring Breakers were taking advantage of the beautiful day. Justin and Ryan were working the bar. I have known them for several years now. They are brothers from Ohio and good bartenders.

They were having fun with some of the customers. The customers would throw ice at the liquor bottles. Whatever bottle it hit was going into the drink. They had three throws and then had to drink the concoction. There were some…umm…interesting mixtures made. It was fun watching it. Sunshine Cindy and I shared a Grouper sandwich. It was huge and good. We were glad we stopped in.

We have spent the rest of the week working on Crab Island Mambo stuff. We are busy promoting two shows the Southern Drawl Band will be doing at Crab Island Cantina on Thursday April 18th at 9 pm and Sunday April 21st at 2 pm. There is no cover and they will have specials galore. This is one of the hottest up and coming bands in the country. Be sure to join us for one or both shows.

Tomorrow Coyote Ugly opens their doors Harborwalk Village. They should be a good addition to the party scene down at the harbor. Saturday will the first day the Destin Main Street Farmers Market will be open. It is in the parking lot of the Destin Water Users office on Main Street. They will have a wide variety of fresh produce and other treats. Hours are from 9 am to 1 pm each Saturday.

Don’t forget we have our new Crab Island Mambo tee shirts available. I will have the shopping cart up and running this weekend on our web site. Take a little of Crab Island Mambo from Destin home with you!
