After a week in Orlando, we were ready to move on up to Jacksonville. Uncle Brent greeted us at Aunty Lisa's with yummy take-out, then he proceeded to let Kenny paint his nails "mermaid blue". What a sport Uncle Brent!
On Sunday we visited an alligator zoo
The kids and Gammy walked around and played
The four of us did an obstacle course/zipline challenge. We weren't sure what to expect...
Being 20-30 feet in the trees for almost 2 hours was challenging, but fun!
Over the zoo area were about 45 platforms, and connecting each platform was some sort of obstacle or zipline. It was more challenging because you had to clip and unclip yourself in. It was a lot of fun, but I was happy to have my feet back on the ground!
We fed the alligators after; I was amazed they could see the tiny food!
After the alligator zoo and zipline, we proceeded to the town of St. Augustine. This historical area was quite interesting and filled with lots of old fashioned charm.
Wall made out of shells
Of course I had to go into the school. It ended up having a cute little gift shop with funny school signs!
Yummy homemade popsicles!
The kids loved this little sign...
...Kenny kept posing and told me to take her pic...
...as she quickly ran to a different spot and said "cheese"!
Kendyll told us she was mad for returning the stroller in Orlando. She didn't quite understand that we only had it for the theme parks. Uncle Brent offered to carry her on his shoulders.
Of course, Cade needed to have his chance up on "shoulders" too!
The historic St. Augustine fort was so pretty at sunset. We just missed being able to go inside because they closed.
Someone wasn't excited to take a family pic
