The Girls' First Boat Ride

As a special surprise on the trip we took a boat ride to find some dolphins. The company we went with was great.  They actually send two boats out and when one of them spots some dolphins they get set up to create a nice wave between the boats.  The dolphins love to play in the wake.  Although we only saw three groups of dolphins, they did not disappoint, nor did the boat ride itself.







About halfway through the trip they opened up this little compartment that held some fish.  They let the kids use nets to try and catch the fish and then put them right back in.  Our girls loved this!

And what trip to the beach is complete without a round of putt-putt? We found a place that Brooke played for free and the girls played for half-price since we got there early in the day.  Can't beat a round of miniature golf for $4.25 total! This was Brooke's first time.  She tried last year, but she was just too young.  She understood the concept better this time.  Although one time she sent the ball toward the hole by throwing it.  Clearly we still have some more teaching to do. :)


 She was so proud of herself when she got the ball in the hole.


Well that wraps up our trip.  We were sad to leave, but I was glad to be back in my own bed with my own shower. Macy had a hard time leaving and quite a few tears were shed. I love making special memories with my family!
