However, making the drive from Knoxville to Destin make the AB quite tired, so he decided to rest on a lounge chair and soak up some sun.  It wasn’t long before his travel companions dragged him down to the beach, where he wound up in an uncomfortable situation being bullied by five young roughnecks in the sand.  This was not the first time the Albino Bowler has been outnumbered.  He was able to use his superior intellect to find a way out by digging a hole in the sand and tunneling his way to freedom.

    Once the AB had made his escape he was finally able to enjoy an afternoon in the surf, enjoying the refreshing feel of the cool water washing over his plastic feet.  Things, however, got a little testy when  the Albino Bowler got a little hungry and tried to help himself to one of his fellow beachgoer’s snacks.  A beating and a good night’s rest and things were back to normal the next day.  The Albino Bowler went on a dolphin cruise where he was excited to see many dolphin frolicking with their young.

He was, however, sad to see that the downturn in the economy had taken its toll on some Destin locals.  While on the cruise, the AB decided to take a walk around the deck and catch a few rays.  He narrowly avoided becoming shark food when he slipped and fell off the railing, relying on his magnetic palms to pull him back to safety.  That was a close call.

    Though there were some rough spots along the way…. but the AB enjoyed his time on the sandy beaches of the Florida panhandle and even made a couple of new friends.
