I'm on a roll! Since it has been awhile since our last posting and we rarely have anything new to share, I will share this. Marty planned a family vacation for us in July to Marco Island, Florida (off the Gulf of Mexico, southwestern tip). It was an amazing week filled with rest and relaxation. The house rental was beyond my wildest expectations. Each day was a different sight to see. The girls and I were in constant awe of our prestine surroundings, food, tours, and shopping.
Interesting enough, during the peak season this six-mile island has over 55,000 people. During the off-peak season, only 15,000. You can imagine the red carpet treatment tourists receive during the summer months. It was nice to have experienced a little of that ourselves.
The picture of Marty and Shaylee was taken during sunset at South Beach. The other picture was taken in the everglades by our air-boat driver and tour guide. Additional highlights was a sunset sail with champagne (sodas for the girls) and shrimp cocktail while viewing dolphins and sting-ray. In the everglades, Manatees are a rare sight to see. We managed to see a momma and her calf. Was awesome to experience them amongst alligaters.
Oops my time is drawing near. Maria needs the computer and is reminding me with her frequent sighing.
Take care everyone!
God bless,
Gigi
