We left Christmas Eve to stay with Jordan's parents in Florida. They rented a house only a couple blocks away from the beach so we walked there quite often to play in the sand and look for shark teeth. And Colin caught a lizard!
Jordan and I took a trip to the Everglades (of course!) and went on a swamp buggy tour with an old timer from the swamp. Started out cold and misty so we didn't see too much except a dead python which was the highlight for Jordan. That and driving the buggy! We also stopped at our favorite restaurant.
There is a nature trail by the house that we walked down and found some very friendly endangered scrub jays. And an endangered gopher tortoise!

More beach time
On our last day heading to the airport, we rescued a softshell turtle and brought it to safer waters. The road it was crossing was very busy with no water nearby!
