My August VaCay - Part III

Saturday, August 9, 2008


Yep, I'm still hanging in Florida with Oma and Ocha! I leave tomorrow - boo hoo! But I'm not one to wallow in pity...instead, we decided to live it up my last few days in FL.
We went to the local waterpark. Suffice it to say, I'm still too little to enjoy being splashed. I took to the lazy river in an intertube a couple of times, but was much happier just hanging with Oma in the main pool. The death drops will have to wait until I'm a little older.


Still practicing my jumps...


and still practicing my kicks.


After a day in the sun, there is nothing better than sprawling out on the hammock with Ocha. This IS the life!


The next day, Oma took me to her history museum! I got to see the Esperanza train car and climb on the "hot up downs" (aka steps in the sun).





It's a cool train car and all, but I can't wait until my special trip to see Thomas the train next year!


Next, we headed over to the local kids hands-on museum. I immediately found the train table!


I did a little food shopping!


I played beads!


And I sat in the ski-ball apparatus! (Then I saw how they worked - hard balls careening towards my head - and got out of the way but fast!)


The sea life touch tank was pretty cool. We saw horseshoe crabs and hermit crabs, spiny sea urchins and icky sea slugs! Rad!


Mom and I met up with good ole Tommy Edison for a photo op.



Last night we headed over to see our friends Beth and Nakies and baby Kai. I was a little upset to see Oma holding Kai.


I was a little more upset to see Mommy holding Kai. I told Mommy "all done baby" and brought her Kai's stroller so she didn't need to hold him anymore.


Another day, another park, another swing set!


Actually we went to the grand opening of the train village at a local park. The playground was phenomenal (with a train theme)!


They have a red caboose and a black steamer! I'm catching on to the train lingo!



Most importantly, they have a train ride! I was all geared up for the action (see picture below of us getting on the ride). Mom thought it looked like rain and suggested we wait it out inside the train archives building. Oma and Ocha said let's see if we can beat the rain!
Well...the rain beat us. We got poured on! It was a very wet train ride and a very soggy ride home in the car.


I ended my trip with giggles and fun with great-grandma and grandpa!



I sure will miss everyone in Florida!!!
