SPRING BREAK

For spring break we were able to go to Florida for 5 days. We flew on an airplane, this was Avery's first time flying. She was so excited, she loved the turbulence, take off's and landings she was laughing the whole way. When we landed we drove to Kissimmee which is about a 20 minute drive. The next morning we decided to go to Gatorland. This was so much fun the kids I would definitely go here again. They loved looking at all the alligators, birds, riding the train and we watched the alligator wrestling show. It was beautiful weather so being outside was so nice. The next day we got up and went to Disneyworld and Epcot. It was a lot of fun and exhausting at the same time. The kids had so much fun and of course Avery went on her favorite ride Thunder Mountain Railroad. Epcot was fun to look at but not much to do. The next day we were ready to conquer Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios but the weather had other plans. It poured all day long so we went shopping to some flea markets and then headed for the coast. We checked into our hotel on Cocoa Beach. It was so nice and relaxing to just play on the beach and hang out at the hotel. We went on a boat tour and saw dolphins, manatees, birds and learned a lot about Cocoa beach. It was a lot of fun and the kids enjoyed it. Sorry there are a lot of pictures.
