To Tally and Back

The day before we left, a good friend of Auntie Sara's, Charlie, took us out on a two hour tour of the St. Marks River. What a treat...we got to see five manatees!!! Thank you, Mr. Charlie!

Munch did very well on the two hour river ride. She wore the life vest the entire time. That's my girl!

While waiting for our breakfast at the Silver Bullet Diner, Munch pretended to take our orders.


Hubs and Vovo Joe Joe fished all day long on Lake Talquin. What a beautiful place!

Munch enjoyed a nice cool Italian soda at the Black Dog Cafe on Lake Ella.

The other 3Ds enjoyed a fabulous southern fried seafood dinner at the Catfish Pad, a local hole-in-the-wall joint.

The 3Ds waited hungrily for their fried seafood dinner at the Catfish Pad.
Munch tried on a hand knitted hat by Ms. Paula, a local yarn merchant and good friend of Auntie Sara's.
Munch zeroed in on Vovo Lydia's soda while enjoying a Mexican lunch at Cabos.

Gi did a great job kayaking with Uncle Mark. She was a real trooper!
Munch decided to pull Gon Gon along at the Tallahassee Natural History Museum.

Mommy and Munch enjoyed a view of Tallahassee from the 22nd floor of the new capital building.

Many thanks to Ms. Maria who gave Gi "Bingo." Gi had instant adoration for Maria after receiving the adorable gift.

Gi posed solemnly in the old Florida Supreme Court.

Gi invaded Auntie Sara and Uncle Mark's bed everyday.

Mommy and Munch enjoyed a lovely evening at the potluck get-together of the Tallahassee Artists' League.

Munch absolutely adores her Uncle Mark.

Well, we just spent a wonderful past week in Tallahassee where my sister and bro-in-law live. We loaded up our mini van rental with everyone and everything except for the kitchen sink. Gi got to spend some quality time with her auntie and uncle doing all sorts of outdoorsie things. And, of course, if the Changs are involved, there was a lot of eating going on too. Big kisses and hugs for Auntie Sara and Uncle Mark for the wonderful townhouse rental and superb hospitality.
