A lazy river scoots around the park and it kept me and my four-year-old in smile-mode for over an hour. There are steep, terrifying slides next to long, windy slides, next to slides with rafts, next to cute little slides for tikes. Next to sharks. Yep! There’s a real, live Update: Shark Reef closed in 2017, replaced by “Misadventures.” I’ll post about Misadventures once we try it out!

My daughters spent a whack of time in the 2.5-acre wave pool with waves that reach six feet high and come crashing out of a manmade mountain (with a shipwreck at its peak) like a tsunami. There are enough things to do here to keep us busy for weeks… which is what we plan to do. We are here for a month so we got an annual pass! That means we don’t have to arrive with the crowd before open (at 10am) and stay until our skin is like bacon. But we will spend A LOT of time soaking in the sun (after careful application and re-application of SPF 1000), taking in the thatched roofs, tropical trees, and nautical tchotchkes tactically placed as if they really did wash up on shore. There will be no boring moments during March!
Hello you little monkeys!!! Glad to see that you have arrived safe and are having a spectacular time! Grandma and I miss you all tons and tons. My mornings are boring now that I have no one to sign the Oscar Mayer Wiener song with, and I don’t have anyone to blame when I’m late for school! Its getting warmer here and Cruzan and I are enjoying spending time outside.
I would like to hear what everyone’s favorite thing about Florida is. Gord included.
Love, hugs and kisses!
Cousin Katie XOXOXO
Dad says that his favourite thing about Florida is the warmth. Palm Trees. Beaches…. 🙂
I don’t have just one favourite thing!

To: Evie & Family,
We just read your post! We love all the adventures you have been on!
When we read the part about a tsunami, we wern’t too sure what that was. As a class, we decided to look it up and we saw a video of a tsunami that happened in Japan. There were houses and builidings that were washed down the street and some caught on fire.
We really liked the picture of the shark in the Shark Reef picture. We also like your picture of the 3 of you with the Crocodile at Typhoon Lagoon!
We all miss you and hope you are having a great time!

I miss you guys too. I am having a good time. About the shark tank….. So, we put on our snorkel mask and stepped into the tank. Me and two cousins and my sister, and my Aunt Kelly and my mom. Then…. it didn’t go so well! First, my smallest cousin decided she didn’t want to do it, so she got out right away with her mom (my Aunt Kelly). Then, when I saw them jump out, I decided that was a good plan. So I got out too. Then…. my other cousin decided half way through she didn’t want to be in there, so my mom put my cousin on her back and swam quickly to the end…. where my sister was standing upset, and scared, because she had to swim the shark tank by herself with a fogged up snorkel mask.
It was more fun to watch other people swimming the shark tank than it was to swim in the shark tank!
