This year instead of going at our school’s designated “Spring Break” we went to Florida the end of April. We stayed with Grandpa Mike and Grandma Sue in Bonita Beach. It is one beach south of Ft. Myers. They were staying there the entire month of April.
We had a great week of relaxing, playing, digging for crabs, fishing, watching the sunset, and swimming. Ken, Noah and Grandpa Mike spent a lot of time fishing off the dock behind the condo. They caught Snook and Mackerel. Noah really enjoyed it and he would hop out of bed really early and go out and fish. Nathan and Katie had fun getting crabs and playing at the beach. Kate learned how to use the net to catch minnows. They both fished off the dock at night too and caught snook. Nathan discovered a sea creature he named “Flippy”. It was so strange looking and came out at night and swam slowly around the dock. We had to look up on the internet what it was. It was a Sea Hare which is a form of a Sea Slug. Nathan wanted to take “Flippy” home, but of course we didn’t.
Then we spent two nights in Orlando and went to Disney Hollywood Studios and Epcot. We had a great day. We stayed at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. They had a really cool pool. It wasn’t too busy at the parks. We walked on most rides and used fast passes for the two most popular rides Test Track and Soarin. Katie and Ken braved the Tower of Terror and The Aerosmith rock in roll roller coaster, but the boys and I stuck with Toy Story Mania. It was another memorable vacation.
