Marco FUN!

 

 

 

 

We arrived in Fort Meyers yesterday and headed to Marco Island. Once on the island, we left our worries and cares behind! We didn't get to meet up with Robin in Atlanta for our final plane. She ended up being routed to Minneapolis after they cancelled her flight from Moline. We quick got some groceries before heading to the condo.

Wow...time to relax and enjoy it here. The weather was a nice and breezy warm 85. Quite warm here. We aren't complaining. We got up and headed to the beach after Michelle and I made some goodies to eat later on. Our "diet" here consists mostly of chips, dips (mostly with cream cheese or sour cream, of course) and the whiskey sour slushies and diet pop. We got hot at the beach and headed to the pool, which we hadn't done on our Marco trips before. Got to see a few lizards here and there on the sidewalks. They are so tiny. Heidi couldn't make it this year and we REALLY miss her!!!!

There are a zillion shells everywhere! Just anywhere you look and walk there are seashells. It is amazing. My kids would go NUTS seashell hunting since in Gulf Shores you can't really see a lot of shells.

Tonight we went out for Joey's Pizza and got to take Pappy's convertible. That was fun! Michelle said I could drive it but NO WAY was I going to drive that pretty little car and chance anything going wrong with it!

Thank you to Pappy and Jo for opening up their condo to us and allowing Michelle to bring us each November. The condo is so beautiful and cozy! Thanks, too, to my hubby back at home and my parents and in-laws for all their help while I am away. And to my friends who are helping with rides and also caring for the kids, too! THANKS!
