Unexpected Fun!

Sometimes we will have an expectation.  At Manatee Park, in North Fort Myers, Fl., I was hoping we would get to see the manatees swimming in the pond.

Unfortunately, all we could actually see was a shadow of a manatee. :(

But, we did see this creepy salamander!

And, we did see what an Air Plant looks like!

Of course, the kids found a way to act silly. :)

A volunteer gave a little 'talk' about the manatee and shared some interesting facts.  Did YOU know that when a baby manatee is born, they weigh around 60 pounds!!

Parker is holding a rib.  Cool.

These are the teeth.  Did YOU know that they grow new teeth if they break?!  Cool.

The big kids acted like the little kids.

It was a great outing, even if we didn't see the manatees.  A beautiful day with sweet friends always seems to bring about SOME kind of adventure!


Blessings,
