Update on the keys

Yesterday was definitely a good one. Started off with some yoga, Namaste! Yoga on the beach with the ocean in front of you...extra special.

Spoke to a lovely couple at the site beside us, they live in Florida, in the area, and come here once a year. Gave us some great info on other parks to check out and a snorkeling spot out front of here. So we decided to do some snorkeling. We did see some cute little tropical fish, a lobster, I saw a small school of red snapper and some other kind of silver fish? Not as active as we thought, apparently you have to go way far out to get the good stuff.

We were also planning on renting some kayaks, however another nice couple down the way offered to lend us theirs. Super sweet! George and Hilary. We took them up on their offer and spent a good 2 hours touring around. Fortunate to see a few black tipped sharks about a foot and a half - two feet long, another small school of what appeared to be smaller black tipped sharks, as well as a tiny ray, about a foot or so in diameter. Upon returning the kayaks our arms were twisted to join them for a drink. They live in Arcadia, Florida and manage an rv park there. Not far from Bradenton where my mom and dad have spent some time a couple of winters. We absolutely loved hanging out with them. They invited us to come visit anytime.
