Key Largo!

It's been five years since Joe and I got married so we decided to take a trip just the two of us. (I guess Todd went along too, I was 7 1/2 months along)

We flew to Miami and spent our first night at South Beach. Besides the AMAZING dinner we had on the boardwalk, we were not impressed with SOBE at all.

South Beach, this was the day we flew in.


Next day we headed to Key Largo where we spent the majority of our trip.

One day we drove south through the Keys all the way to Key West.
Our very favorite part of the trip was on that drive we stopped and spent the afternoon at Bahia Honda State park. It was a beautiful beach! We snorkeled off the shore, relaxed, and got chased by a crab who really wanted to pinch us!
Joe can't play in the sand without building something, and since we were in florida a crocodile seemed the perfect thing.


Ah, I could go back to that beach any day. It was perfect!
My next favorite part of our trip was snorkeling in the reefs.
This is a pic of the catamaran that took us out on the water. We went to two different reefs and spent an hour at each, which was the perfect amount of time. We ended that adventure exhausted and sea sick :(



On our last day in Florida before we flew home we stopped and did a nature walk in the Everglades, the Anhinga Trail. It was full of crocodiles and alligators! It was way cool to see so many of them.
Best Anniversary Ever!
