sine we found out cheri and david are getting married we've been planning the trip to florida. ashley and jodye went first. followed by robert and brad. and finally the last to arrive were hannha, dave, jason, and myself.
fort myers beach
on our first day we took the trip to for myers beach.
the boys rented a wave runner while hannah and i soaked up the sun.
we wanted down the pier out into the water and saw manatees! too bad the picture came our terrible. those lil guys are fast swimmers.
reynolds chateau
eddie and kelly were gractious and opened their entire property to the peterson clan. jodye, brad, ashley, and robert all stayed in the house in extra rooms. jason, dave, hannah, and i got to party it up in the fancy rv.
we spent the majority of our days in the pool.
another animal i sadly didn't get a picture of was longhorn cattle! i don't think we have them around the northwest but they were very majestic.
key west express
the peterson clan took the key west express from for myers to key west.
the view of key west as we rode into the ah-mazing. the harbor, the boats, ah!
ernest hemingway's house
southern most point of the continental usa
exploring key west
the third and final animal i couldn't get a picture of was a hug iguana, it looked like a komodo dragon. the thing was huge! it was just taking a stroll down the sidewalk into someones backyard.

leaving florida
we had to get up super earlier to return the car and make our flight. but at least we got to see the pretty sunrise.
one of our many stops on the length way home.
we went from florida to atlanta where our connect flight to kansas city was delayed due to weather in texas. when we finally got to kansas city we had a brief layover where we stayed on the flight and then went back home. it was an extremely exhausting day.
home.
