Spring Break Part 2

Sunday: Okefenokee Swamp

Preparing to launch


We saw about 30 alligators during our 4 hour ride, one of these went right in front of our canoes

Monday: Silver Springs

We rode on glass-bottomed boats around the natural springs and saw lots of wildlife. Lots of movies are/were filmed here including the really old Tarzan movies from the 1930's.

One of the springs through the glass

He likes the warm spring water too


Supposedly if you take a picture in the middle of this twisted palm you'll fall in love. Too bad I don't need the help. ;-)

They eat out of your hand! It's a little bit of heaven on earth.

So will there be slobber in heaven? Cause giraffes have a lot of it.

** insert previous post here**

Thursday: Indians vs. Phillies Spring Training Game

This stadium is smaller and older than the Lookouts here in Chattanooga

So is it a strike or a ball?

Can you find us? We're out there toasting somewhere in the bleachers in the 80 degree temperatures. I'm so glad I don't live in Florida, I want it to warm up but 80 in early March?

Making friends with the Lego T-Rex at Downtown Disney right before the part of the trip I looked forward to the most: seeing Ryan at his grandparents' house after a week apart.
(Yeah, yeah, I know what you girls will say, "We do this all the time...")
