After Virginia Beach and Alabama, we headed to Pine Mountain, Georgia. We stayed at the beautiful Callaway Gardens Lodge & Spa. We had another gorgeous view from our balcony. We did a lot of swimming there. We also enjoyed the gardens. We watched a “Birds of Prey” show that was really neat, hiked, fed all kinds of water creatures, and visited the Butterfly Center. What a nice place that was! 
What fun!! The pictures are amazing!
You were only 4 hours away, you should have called!! :-) Glad you had a good time though, I want to go there with our kids now too!!
