As parents we've discovered a new meaning to the word VACATION. Anything can happen like Madelyn getting an ear infection in the middle of the week or both kids having meltdowns in the car while on the highway. First we took a day trip to Wakulla Springs which was about half an hour away from our house. Then we went to Tampa for a couple of days. We visited my cousin in St. Petersburg and went to the Aquarium. Lastly we went to Bonita Springs to visit our good friends, the Benders. Oli and Madelyn had a great time with their daughter, Charlotte and their doggy, Zoro. We loved spending time with them. Despite a few bumps along the way, we had a wonderful family vacation!
WAKULLA SPRINGS
We took a boat ride and saw beautiful birds, turtles, manatee and several alligators. The whole family enjoyed it! After that we went swimming and had a picnic lunch.
Check out the alligator!
KOREAN FOOD!
At this point Madelyn had gotten an ear infection and was on antibiotics but still feeling cranky, poor girl. On our way to Tampa we made a very important stop in Gainesville. We went to Garlic & Ginger, a Korean restaurant that we loved going to when we lived there. The food was so yummy!
AQUARIUM
We went to the Aquarium in Tampa and visited my cousin in St. Petersburg.
Unfortunately my camera battery died and I didn't take the charger with me so I wasn't able to take photos with the Benders :(
