Hello..

Hello! You might be wondering what happened?! Where's the blogger? Long story short. We spent a relaxing five days in Ocala. Hiking, biking, and swimming in the clearest lake water I have ever seen. We met friends, and loved our campground. Today, we moved on and headed to warm water. And when there's warm water there's BOOGIE BOARDING!!!! I bought a boogie board on our stop at Walmart, and we got some new swimsuits! We had a great time boogie boarding, and can't wait till tomorrow!

Naval Space Musuem....

     We headed over to the Naval Space Museum. Sadly Melissa was under the weather so she didn't come.  It is the most visited museum in Florida. It was huge. They have everything from spacecraft's, to the lunar module. Being big fans of all the space flights and things, we all loved seeing the stuff. We stayed here for about 2 hours. Patrick and I were thinking about going on this space ride in which you pay six dollars per person till we figured out that you can't actually man it. The one you can man was to expensive. But hey, we didn't need any spacecraft ride. We got to see space crafts, sit in  interactive planes, and walk through a retro town!  All inside this ginormous museum! And yes Patrick and I did get lost! ;) After the museum we headed over two a card shop. ( this has become Patrick's new obsession collecting football cards!) We picked up a few cards and headed back home. Melissa enjoyed the peace and quiet to herself while she caught up on journaling and relaxed. A great day for all!

Today I went out for my morning bike ride! I love the rides that I have! Ate breakfast, and started school. Went out for another ride and found a great trail! I can’t wait to do the whole loop! After I did some more school, Patrick and I decided to bike up to the Visitor Center. On the way to it you bike through Fort Pickens. We walked in and while looking at the identification of shells a lady and I got into a wonderful conversation about shells! We biked back and finished school for the day! As you can imagine there were a few bike rides in between! But overall a great day for school, and biking!

Today we dug into our school work, and worked on catching up.  Midday I went on a bike ride around the campground! I love biking! Later on, we decided to head over to the beach and get wet. We went into the ocean which was 48 degrees. Are parents dared us to go underwater, if we did we would get anything we want under 5 dollars. We took the dare! They even went in!

I ran into the sand and dipped my feet into the ocean. Sweet! Mom also found a Jelly Fish without its stingers so I got to touch it! It was fun! Melissa and I also biked to the Visitor center earlier in the day! It’s was nice to go for a ride again! We have been collecting National Park cards and we picked some up there!
