Key West

by //

We went to Key West and stayed at a super nice hotel. It was so private and we had two bedrooms. Don’t know how we worked that one out, but it was awesome. I could have easily lived there for a month.

I didn’t think it would be that much hotter because it was the same temperature on Sanibel Island, but it was so hot I was sweating and pretty gross by the end of the day! I loved it!

We went on a Jet Ski and I have never been so sore in my life! It was pretty rough. I held onto Bob with all my might while we went 55 mph on really choppy waves in the ocean. When I get up to walk, I limp. It was a serious workout. But it was fun.

We also went shopping! My favorite! So I dressed up since it was hot as blazes! Crazy that we live in a world where it’s hot in one place and freezing cold in another. But I’m thankful for it…and that I actually got to take advantage of it this year.

A Perfect Day

by //

Wednesday was pretty much the perfect day. We rode bikes for about 5 hours! We rode all around this little island we’re on. We rode to lunch, then a bit of shopping, I got a chocolate milkshake, and we saw the island lighthouse. And, (if you follow me on Twitter you’d know that) Bob may have seen Jon Gosselin! Ha ha! So fun!

I am so not ready for this vacation to be over. Good thing I have a week left!

First Day of Vacation

by //

Today is our first day of vacation. It’s not working out the way we planned for it to, but we don’t mind. We’re thankful that we get to go on vacation at all. Gertrude came over today and helped me think through what I’m packing. I hope to keep you entertained the next several weeks. And hopefully I’ll be buying some goodies along the way.

She was telling me I should buy something from each city we spend time at, since there will be quite a few. She mentioned charms for my charm bracelet and I thought that sounded like such fun. That was my original intent when I bought it, but have forgotten about it since then. So that’ll be something fun to do on the trip. She also said she likes to buy jewelry from every place she goes. That sounds like much more of an expense, but we’ll see.

Do you do anything fun like this? Give me some more ideas!
