Florida 2011

This year it seems as though Spring is never going to arrive. In that regard I am quite happy that our vacation was a tad later than usual. The weather in Florida has been fabulous. However as I type there is a thunderstorm off to the West. But it is far better than snow that fell yesterday at home.

Here are a few shots from our first couple of days.

Charli decorating our sand castle with shells.

Easter Sunday near the flowers on our way to the beach.

Running to see the manatees

The snout of one of four manatees that we were mingling amongst.

Our sandcastle survived the rain storm.

In need of a rinsing off

Another favorite thing, playing in the shells

Shells and Charli are all clean

One of my favorites, the brown pelican

Reading the paper with Papa

Playing in the pool

Swimming with Jama

She wanted her picture with the frog.....

Watching the waves today. They were pretty intense due to the impending storm.

Just being goofy.....

We still have a few more days down here. But I wanted to get a quick update posted. We will continue to play and enjoy the sun. And hopefully Spring will be in Wisconsin when we get home.
