May 25 - kayaking at Sanibel Island

Back to the vet as apparently in Florida the Dog Flu is a thing....most Doggy Daycares require an Influenza vaccine and a few other tests.. so here we are again...first time seeing this as the exam table is remote like a hospital bed...so cool


Then off to Doggy Daycare again so we can play!


No more than 5 minutes into the kayak and dolphins appeared.... I ❤ dolphins...they swam around the kayaks the entire time,  sometimes we could even see them swimming right underneath the kayaks!!! Totally unexpected.


And then the manatees appeared....also totally unexpected as we understood they had moved on as it was getting too warm.


They swam right under the kayaks several times and they were huge....cool but scary!


Paddled through the canals for a while...love having Google maps working on my phone....the waterways here are a real maze....




Saw this big green iguana...we were so close I was scared he may jump in my kayak

And then this happened...

Today was a lazy day. As no cell service and wifi at the campground, I needed some down time to book some stuff. Found a great dog park and Lu made a new little friend...

We didn't stay long....little walking...late lunch and back to the trailer. George hitting the enormous candy store....$22.00 later.....omg Second night of firefly watching was even better than the first. We saw some Blue Ghost fireflies....the males stay lit for up to a minute and glow a soft blue colour...there are not many in this area as they are mostly in the Asheville forests so I was super excited to see them. On our way back I had a firefly on my hand for the longest time....he just kept walking and blinking and walking....💗 I never like to say that I won't see them again here in th...

June 6 - Downtown Asheville

Image
The temperatures here are refreshing....it cooled down last night to about 14 degrees...first time in a long time that the air conditioner was turned off and windows opened to let the breeze in through the night... We spent the day tripping around Asheville. Lu is in Doggy Daycare today so we are on our own. There are many large old buildings with individual little boutique stores and eateries.. Our first church we have been in on this trip...we got invited in so ..why not! Very cool area, we mostly window shopped....browsed around...enjoyed the cool old buildings... We saw quite a few old buildings converted into "Art walks" where there were individual artist displays/sales....love this guy!!!! A bike made out of wood....$60,000.00!!! Then back out on the streets!! Asheville is Beer Capital USA...and by 2:00...still no beer in our be...
