Florida Vacation: Day 1

Today we basked in the sun, enjoyed the warmth, and generally lazed about. We visited the marina and saw Jim and Barb's boat; we went to the ocean beach on nearby Casey Key and hunted up (many) seashells; we swam in the clubhouse pool. No one was sick, the sunburns were minor, and we had a great time. I guess there isn't much more to say.

Helen can't quite decide about the weather - shorts and a jacket. We had a nice walk in the neighborhood up to the marina along the intercoastal waterway.

Notice Helen is ready to commit to the weather, now. The jacket is off to reveal the swim suit.

Looking at Uncle Jim's and Aunt Barb's sailboat.

Enjoying a view of the Intercoastal waterway and the houses that look out on it.

This big heron swooped right in over our head as we sat near the marina.

John liked the water, even if it was a tad cold.

"Look at the size of this seashell!"

Jim and Jeremy are hopefully having more fun than they look like. :)

For the kids, a day at the beach isn't complete unless someone has been buried in sand.

Or, several someones.
