Manatee day

Sunday was manatees day.

Dad drove Mum and all us kids (except Alfie) to Crystal River and we went out in a boat to search for wild manatees.


We got into wet suits and the water and swam with some of them - we were allowed to touch if they came to us - but only very gently with one hand.

One baby took a particular shine to Mum with lots of snogs and cuddling.



The water was very cold but it was totally awesome.

When we got back Grandad was still here as his flights have been cancelled to New York because of Hurricane Sandy.he can't get home until Thursday!

Elliott and Elizabeth came round for dinner with their Mum and Dad and we went swimming. Then we played in the house and all aye pasta and ice cream. They also took away the giant cuddly manatee i bought as it would not fit in our luggage and they have space.
