Today, I am going to start with the nearest date documented to this date.
Feb 3, 2006. Biscayne National Park. Homestead, Florida.
Let me start out by saying that February is a little different in Florida! It practically never gets cold there! 60-70 degrees farenheit is a normal temperature in the winter; an ideal climate for all it's diverse wildlife. At Biscayne National Park in Homestead Florida, they protect numerous types of wildlife, including coral reefs, beautiful islands (and my favorite) manatees! The park's other visitors include turtles, pelicans, and plenty of colorful fish. Many of the park's guests snorkel, boat and camp right on the bay! Although, we wish we could have participated in these activities, our time in Homestead, Fl. was a short one.
Here on the left is my brother and I at the end of the boardwalk. (I know, I'm lookin' a little chub.) It was so beautiful outside with the wind blowing in our hair. Jeremy and I have a numerous amount of these 'ocean moments', and I have to say, seeing the ocean and all it's splendor was one of my favorite parts of the trip.
Along with all the other trinkets we collected on our trip, we also gathered patches. These were just iron-ons from national parks and other various locations we could find them at. Our plan was to iron them to a great big blanket to display them...but none of them will stick. :( I know, sad.
ooooh I am so excited to hear about your trip!!!! :D
