Miami and the Keys part 2

Day 2 we woke up to a pretty windy and cloudy day. We still decided to get put and try to find Grecian reef again. This time Alex made sure to know how to use the GPS and we got there, eventually... It was a very wet and bumpy ride to get there. Some of us had taken sea sick meds before we left the dock. Poor Raffi was too young to take it and he got really sick. When we reached the reef he didn't want to get in the water anymore. 

I hurt my back on the way out because of the rough sea so I got in the water for a little bit but then stayed in the boat with Raffi. He is such a trooper!! He didn't even complain when he was throwing up over board. 💪 It was very good that we had left David with farmor and farfar!

Lunch break. Check on David and get Bubbles, who was going out with us after lunch.


Unfortunately, I have no pictures of the afternoon trip. We went to the same place as the day before and this time we brought Bubbles and David. Farmor joined us, too. We all had a great time in the water. Bubbles jumped in several times by herself but needed some help to get back in the boat. It was so fun to see her swim with all of us. David was floating in an his little "boat" with a sun screen.

After getting home and cleaning up up a little we went out with farmor and farfar to have a delicious dinner at a local restaurant!!



Today we woke up to very windy weather! We had hoped to be able to go out on the boat a last time today, before leaving, but the weather was really not good for it. We packed and left. Alex did a great job getting the boat back on the trailer in the stormy weather. We are hoping to be back in not too long and have some better snorkling weather with less wind.

On the way back home we stopped at farmor's and farfar's house in Miami to pick up some things and to wait for rush hour to be over before getting back on the road.The boys swam in the pool while Alex and farmor packed the last things. I rested my back and watched the boys in the pool, which feels a lot better today by the way :-)


Bye bye South Florida for this time!! Now back to Ormond for some sleep and coop tomorrow morning!!

  1. All those days were great fun and we spent lots of times with the kids - especially "SMILEY" DAVID. Very glad we were able to be a part of all of it. Love, Farfar

  2. Verkar att ha varit en omtumlande utflykt till The Keys. Men vilka fina bilder du tagit Tina. Det känns nästan som vi varit där med er.
    Hoppas du är bra i ryggen nu.
    Kram
