Fall Break in Florida

This year for fall break we headed to Florida for another week! The weather was gorgeous and we had a blast!
We left at Friday the 10th at 3:10am drove straight through and arrived at our lil cottage at 10:15pm! The kids did so wonderful and we still can't believe we made the whole drive...19hrs!
Our first morning we lucked out with a gator in the back pond...very awesome! We found starfish and sand-dollars on the beach this time as well! Very neat going in Oct, different things at the beach, less lizards and craps but more geckos at the cottage!
One day at Dubious Beach we swam with a stingray, I got stung by a jellyfish(interesting feeling) and snorkeling was pretty neat with all the fish! Kaylee tried out snorkeling(ok no snorkel but still cool for her) and liked it! Maybe this summer she'll try the snorkel part! hahaha We had some great waves for the boogie boarding....a blast!

We beach bummed it Sat through Thur with going to a zoo and sea turtle rescue as well! Then our last day Fri we headed to the zoo and aquarium! Enjoyed a 80 degree hayride and Halloween party that we came across!
