While in New York, you are constantly on the go and the night life can keep you busy pretty much around the clock. In Myrtle Beach, the city basically shuts down at sundown with dining as the only pastime at night.

Lunch is the biggest meal of the day and a time for the family to gather together. After lunch they nap or do other family activities then return to work at about four o'clock when it’s cooler.

As the cabbie gets paid his fee, we scamper across the street with a slight bounce in our step, and turn the corner to find our favorite pre-game bar. The Cubby Bear is an everyday sports bar until the game arrives. Then, the spacious building, wallpapered in Cubs jerseys and old photographs, becomes alive with fans, scalpers, and tourists.

Round after round comes to our table and we talk to anyone we can about how exciting today’s game is because every game is a big game for Cubs fans!
