The Clan McKinnon

Final photos from our rooftop porch.  Not the most cooperative bunch -  Mom should know better than wait to the last day to get a photo of us! Until next time boys! Time to hit the road back to Michigan!

More fun in the gulf visiting and learning about all kinds of marine life. Patiently waiting for the dolphin show... please start soon. Hooray! I was excited to find another animal friend named Mango - the same name as my leopard gecko friend at school! After checking out all the animals that live in or near the water, we thought we show test our water skills out too. Yes John, just like your new hat says, Life is Good!

The family took a morning walk along the beach before it got crowded.  We had the place to ourselves to run around.  Some people got tired of running sooner than others and needed some help.  Good thing Dad was with us.  Later in the day just Mom and I walked to the little town area to look for some souvenirs and I made my first attempt at gambling. One of the stores had a coin push machine that Mom gave me two quarters for (after a bunch of teenagers had put in way more quarters) and I walked away with over $3 in winnings! 

We had a super huge, awesome pool. But it was unheated, so we only went it for brief periods - but still tried to make the most of it!

Red Shirt Day for boys today. Deciding on which Ninjago character is our favorite. Seems like any good vacation spot as a pirate themed putt-putt course! An intense family challenge event occurred...The McKinnons won...under protest though! Fierce sports competition usually requires relaxing to recharge - good thing we had sand, sun and water! Digging, digging, and more digging. For the short trip home from the beach, we had the #1 shuttle driver who had special stash of chocolate chip cookies! For everyone!

OK guys, which Ninjago character do you think looks best in red?

A beautiful sunny morning walk - led us to yummy donuts! Filled with sugar, we were ready for an intense game of duck, duck, goose. A long bike ride later, we found another sunny patch of grass to relax in. We definitely needed ice cream to refuel for the bike ride back home!
