Florida Trip and Second Venture to Disney


We got back today from six nights in Florida. Bryn was so excited to go to Florida to visit Nana and Papap that she came up with the ingenious idea of using our Advent calendar, which involves a Santa falling, day by day, down a chimney, as a countdown to the trip. We had perhaps the easiest time traveling to Florida that we've ever had: we were able to park in the short-term garage (on more recent trips, we've been using satellite parking, which adds more time (and not a significant cost savings) to the overall travel time); our flight left on time AND LANDED EARLY; and, most significantly, Luke was a perfect angel on the flight. While it usually takes us seven hours door-to-door, we made the trip in 5 hours 45 minutes.

The first full day that we were in St. Augustine, we visited the Alligator Farm, where we are now members. The playground pictures below are from that stop. We missed, however, the komodo dragon and 20-foot python who will be debuting in May, so we'll look forward to seeing them next time.
