We have lived in Provo, St. Louis, Travis AFB, Guam, England, Germany, Vacaville (CA), Austin (TX) and now we get to try out life in Florida. Never a dull moment at our crazy house...

Wakulla Springs in Tallahassee


 My cousin, Margo (standing up, in the white shirt), her husband Mike and their cute girls Chloe, Sophie, and Eva came to Florida from CA for vacation.  They were staying in Miami and Orlando, but they drove 4-5 hours north to meet us in Tallahassee for an afternoon.  It was so fun to see them again!  We went on the best river cruise ever.
 No fake animals along this jungle cruise!

We saw several manatees, even swimming under our boat.


I loved all these alligators!

Two movies were filmed here:  a Tarzan movie, and an Airplane movie
One area of Wakulla Springs is roped off to be a Swimming Area.  On the other side of the rope, alligators swim by!  (Alligators are territorial, so they don't bother the swimming area.)  Josh loved this high dive.
These guys seem more like first cousins than 2nd cousins!
