Gumbo Limbo

Since hubs decided to hang out with his fellow IT geeks, Gi and I decided to head down to a local nature center to watch the staff feed the many indigenous sea life they have there. Gi got to see, first hand, how stingrays, sharks and turtles eat and what they eat. Afterwards, we climbed a forty-foot tower and was rewarded with a beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean and the intracoastal waterways while a cool breeze blew through our hair. Then it was off to the trail boardwalk and the butterfly garden. After about an hour and a half of being one with nature, we headed back home. What a great day to spend outside with my munch! Too bad hubby decided to attend a LAN party (big snore if you ask me) instead.

That's wonderful! All kids need to commune with nature.
