3/23/2017 0 Comments What I Did Over Spring Break 2k17Over Spring break I went to Fort Myers, Florida with my family. On the first day in Fort Myers, me and my family went to Fort Myers beach. The water was really cold since it was just getting warm but it was still warm enough to swim in. Me and my dad stayed to play in the water while my mom and sister walked around checking out all of the shops. We ate a delicious lunch on the bay walk and then stopped at love boat ice cream on the way back to the house. On the second day we went to a place called Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve where we took a beautiful nature hike. On the hike we saw 3 alligators, a lot of cool birds, turtles, fish, and boars. My favorite part of this hike was the boars because they were babies and they were really cute. The rest of the night we went swimming at the pool and ate dinner with friends in Florida at the same time as us. On the third day that we were in Florida, my family drove to an island called Sanibel Island, here we rented bikes and rode around the small island all day. Along the way we stopped at beaches including my favorite beach (Lighthouse beach) to go for short swims. The water on Sanibel was much colder than the water in Fort Myers. Later that day we went to another small island called Captiva. This island had huge houses and a lot of beautiful beaches. We stopped at one beach to watch the sunset and then headed back home. On the fourth day, we went to watch a spring training game. The teams that were playing were the Red Sox and the Twins. After four hours of sitting directly in the sun and getting a horrible sun burn, the Red Sox won. After the game we went out to eat to a pizza parlor where they teach people how to make pizza dough (including tossing it up into the air) I think the funnest part of this was when the pizza dough landed on my sisters head when she tried to catch it. After dinner we went to go play mini-golf at a that had a castle theme. This was really cool and got kind of scary when you went into the dragons den. After this we drove back home and relaxed for the rest of the night. On the fifth and final day of our stay in Florida, we went to Fort Myers beach again. This time was special because we went on a banana boat ride which is like tubing but on the ocean. This was really fun but I think the best part about this day was seeing a dolphin really close up and trying to keep up with it so we could touch it. All in all I would say it was a very successful spring break trip and I can't wait to go back to Florida soon!
