Relaxation
We didn’t get to do much while we were there, we just kept putting things off, then it was Friday and we were packing. Oh well, it was nice to just have time to ourselves, even without our puppy. Not a single responsibility and we didn’t have to wake up early to take Roman out! How wonderful! But we did miss him and called almost daily to check in on him!
We did go to a really cool golf course called Congo something. It was like a whole safari adventure theme, super neat!
We met Jared there, so it was guaranteed to be a good time right from the start—first of all, it’s me trying to play golf, second, it’s Jared, need I say more!! We went at like 9 pm so that way all the little kids would be gone and also, we were hoping it would be cool outside. Neither was true. But we still did manage to have a good time overall. Jared was crazy, but what else is new, it’s never a dull moment when he’s there!
So, let’s just talk about how HOT Florida is in August, shall we! WOW! Oh, and FYI, it doesn’t cool off at night, it just gets dark. Anyway, we were all amazingly hot as you can see from our pics, I am more than glistening, it was gross and a cold shower was definitely the perfect end to that outing! It seriously looks like we walked under/through a waterfall, but we did not, it’s just sweat, but hey, my pores got cleaned out in the process, so it’s all good!
There were live baby alligators there too that you could feed. But you had to pay to do it, so we just watched other kids feed them! But it was pretty cool to see. That’s about the closest I’d ever want to be to those and also the biggest I’d want to meet too. They were pretty feisty as it was for being that small.
So, that, in a nutshell, was our lovely trip to hot and sunny Florida! Roman will be back with a vengeance next week! Trust me!
