Original caption

The beach house that cancelled on us 2 days before our trip is clearly occupied. Lots of pool floats, car, bike, towels hanging. Rather it’s the owners or other renters, we don’t know bc my lame husband wouldn’t let me knock on the door 🤣#tripcancelled #familyvacation #beachvacation
