Universal Studios

On the last day of our trip we went to Universal Studios. We met Matt family there to hang out with them again.

Lindsey reads the map to get us where we are going.

Islands of Adventure.... Harry Potter!

The whole reason we went to Florida is to go to the Harry Potter part of Islands Of Adventure. It was well worth it. Lindsey was so excited. We got to the park 30 minutes before the park opened and had to stand in line for over an hour just to get into the Harry Potter Section. Then there was a 2 hour wait for the main ride and a 2 hour wait for Lindsey to get a wand.

Lindsey was the only one chosen to have the wand master choose her wand for her.

She didn't keep the one he chose! She picke out another.

On Monday of vacation we went to Vero Beach and met Matt and Lori and their family. It was the first time our beach day for our vacation was not rained out. We had fun relaxing on the beach and playing in the water.

Sea World

On our second day of vacation we went to Sea World. We got to feed stingrays, dolphins, and sea lions. The shows were great and Lindsey loved them.

I thought this was so cute... she reached out to touch the dolphin as it swam by.

It may be hard to see... but this is a stingray.

It was hot waiting for the dolphin show but Lindsey insisted on sitting in the splash zone. We didn't get splahsed.

This was a window where we could watch the killer whales swim. It was a HUGE tank. They look so small in this picture.
