March Madness FLORIDA!








We did it! They had their first flight ever! a great Surprise at the airport
check in was My Cousin Carol! She hooked us up and they were able to pre board and meet
the flight crew and got their first wings and cookies! What happened next was not so fun our direct flight ended up diverting due to a medical emergency. We landed in Florida just in time for an afternoon swim at The Little Pool!






We woke up refreshed and ready for a special surprise
from Nana & Poppy! We were going on a real Pirate ship!
The Black Pearl with Captain Salty, and Deck mates Knobby Knees and Black Beard with a real pirate fight with water cannons to defeat the Pirate Pete lots and lots of water and much more Fun!
We defeated him and found the key to the treasure! After we had Yummy fish tacos 

We swam at the Big Pool after Lunch!

and finished the day with Mac and Cheese on the Patio!

The last time this guy saw the ocean he was just shy of
2! The trip where we drove for 2 days and made a few 
stops along the way

The Beach!


We scootered  and Biked up to
the pool almost every day! Such a 
great idea to pack our wheels! Thanks Nana
