Florida

My Buddy the Giraffe

I'm a little off schedule and routine here (and by 'a little' I really mean super duper off schedule and routine), so my posting isn't as regular as I was planning. Please enjoy this un-photoshopped, un-cropped and un-retouched giraffe picture I took at the zoo as an apology (yes we were that close!)

Any zoo which offers a highly interactive experience with the animals like the Brevard Zoo does is ok in my book. Feeding and making friends with giraffes and exotic birds is my idea of a fun trip to the zoo.

Feeding birdies

They let you buy snacks to feed certain animals so that they come up to you, land on you, nudge you, etc= awesome.

So far we've done a lot of relaxing on this vacation, and I'm not gonna lie, I'm craving some adventuring. Not too much adventuring here on Florida's space coast in the rain, so I think that'll have to wait until the next trip.

We'll have to get creative with our time today, it's a little huricaney (huricaney's a technical word....). Who's up for some puddle-jumping??

Poolside Greetings

My apologies if you saw the half-written post that accidentally got posted. I'm attempting to blog from the ipad for the first time and I blame user error....Plus, I'm distracted. This is my current view.

It's been a busy past few days, but a good busy. Before our early am flight yesterday to Florida (and lack of wifi yesterday... Disaster! Don't worry, crisis averted), we attended my college roommates beautiful wedding, AND accepted an offer on Clark(!!!!!!!!!!!). More details on Clark later since it still hast quite sunk in yet. At least when I started doing my ridiculous happy dance, I was at a wedding on a dance floor, so no one was judging... I hope.

Speaking of wedding, the venue was amazing!

They got married under that arch with an amazing view of Hartford in the background, and she DIYed all the decor. A girl after my own heart, no wonder we worked out so well as roomies.

The room with the dj and dance floor was a charming cabin ...

...complete with moose head. Normally I'm not a huge fan, but the groom put his touch on the decor with a baby's breath wreath, so it totally made mr. Moose rise to the occasion.

Beautiful wedding and congrats to the new Mr. & Mrs.!!!!

Maybe tomorrow I should get out of the sun to blog so I can actually see what photos I'm posting... And maybe I'll either figure out the Wordpress ipad ap or blog from a real computer.... Maybe.

Until tomorrow!
