Just like every year, we ventured off for our family vacation the week before school starts. Our fabulous friends (and neighbors) invited us to tag along on their already planned family vacation to the Florida Keys. How could we pass that up. One Friday after work, with the car loaded to the top, we headed out on the trek. We stopped for the night in Ft. Lauderdale and were up and on the road by 6:30 the next morning. The ride to Sugarloaf was long, but man is it pretty.
We heard from several friends that you have to stop at Robbie's in Key Largo and feed the tarpon. You would think these fish wouldn't be hungry, but they go nuts for a fish.
Watch your fingers through. They could bite.
We couldn't leave without a bathroom break and a stop for pictures.
We made it to our destination around lunchtime and checked in to our home for the next 5 days. It was nothing fancy, but it did have a full refrigerator, a shower, air conditioning and no bugs. That's my kind of camping.
We met up with the Flowers family and headed to lunch. Lucky for us we didn't spot a shark, but who knew there were bears in the Keys? Morgan wasn't too worried.
We ended our first day on the water. We all took turns doing a little tubing.
This was the girls first time tubing and they had a blast!
Even that time that Michael, Addison and I went together. We all got flipped off, Michael and I each lost a pair of sunglasses, and Addison nailed Michael giving him a busted lip. I call that a successful tubing adventure.
Only day 1 and we had so much fun.
