Below is a slideshow of some pictures from Spring Break. I tried to add the text to that post, but then the slideshow wouldn't load. I guess I need to work a little on my tech savyness (if that's even a word). We had a great time other than Matt ending up on crutches halfway through the week. Hazen loved the beach and I think he would have been happy spending all day every day there, but Rett got sunburned the first day. We really enjoyed our time there. It was not crowded at all like some beaches are on spring break. We could let Hazen run and not worry about losing him in a crowd. Of course, uncrowded beaches is a recipe for boredom in teenagers.
Monday, we got up early to watch the space shuttle launch and spent most of the day on the beach. Tuesday, Matt and Rett were sunburned so we spent most of the day at the outlet mall. By the end of the day, Matt could hardly walk because his foot was hurting so bad. Wednesday, I took Hazen to the beach while Matt and Rett lounged around the hotel. We had planned to go to Daytona so Rett could see the speedway, but decided Matt's foot needed looked at. After nearly 4 hours in the ER, he was release with an ankle brace, hard soled shoe, crutches and 2 prescriptions. Nothing broken....just sprained/strained. Thursday we made the trip to Daytona and took a tour of the track. On the way back to St. Augustine, we stopped at a few of the other beaches. We found a lot of good shells there! Friday....the dreaded day we have to head home. We made our way through the gardens at the Fountain of Youth discovered by Ponce de Leon in 1513.
We arrived back home around 1000 Saturday morning. After talking to all my co-workers who left Saturday, we are really glad we decided to leave a day early. Most of them were stuck in traffice for several hours around Nashville.
We still didn't get to see all that we wanted to, but had a great time. Matt and I think we need to make another trip with just the two of us!
