Sanibel Island







































Luke and Sam had a blast at the beach! We saw lots of wildlife at the beach including "pet" dolphins that hung out for an entire day, flying fish, huge pelicans and many many sting-rays. We learned that you are supposed to do the "Sanibel Shuffle" while walking into the ocean so that you don't sneak up and startle or step on a sting-ray. It hurts really bad when you step on a sting-ray!!

Luke enjoyed some firsts while vacationing in Sanibel. The biggest is that he now goes underwater (on purpose)....and likes it!! Yay! Hooray! He was also very brave at the beach and enjoyed venturing all the way out to the Sandbar with his buddy, Jack. He and Sammy also enjoyed the showers at the condo very much. They spent lots of time in the shower when it was too early or too late to be at the pool or the beach ;)

We enjoyed an afternoon with Uncle Bob that included a gator sighting (very close and personal) at Uncle Bob's golf course, talking parrots that said "hello Sam" and "hello Luke", Ding-Darling nature preserve, Pinnocio's ice-cream, a very cool playground visit, dinner at the Bubble Room, a visit to Captiva, the Marina and more!

We love Sanibel!
