Today was the seventh and final full day of our Florida vacation 2008.
Once again I started my morning off with a Double Chocolate Chip from Starbucks coffee shop. I returned home and got ready for the beach. When we arrived at the beach, the waves were picking in and that meant I could ride my new board some more. I continued to ride my board for about 20 minutes and then hit the water. A storm had arose in the sea somewhere and caused seaweed to wade into our beach. Me and Lauren Ashley went and gathered up some clumps of seaweed and began to shake them and noticed fish, crabs, and even shrimp swam rapidly out of them. We went back to shore and got a large net that we could shake the seaweed in. We began to shake it again and caught everything that was in it. This past summer I worked at a Saltwater Fish Store, so I could easily identify the fish we caught. The majority of the fish were Trigger fish and Sexy Shrimp. It was very interesting to work with the fish and shrimp and then swim with them. =]. We gathered our things and returned home. We decided to go back to the mall and make last minute exchanges and purchases of items we hadn't on Thursday. We went to a souvenir shop and I bought key chains for my friends back home. Today was picture day at the beach so we had to hurry home and get ready for pictures. It was a beautiful sunset which made our pictures beautiful. When we finished pictures, we returned home and Maggie, Lauren Ashley, and I left to go to the Sugar Shack, which is an ice cream store down the road. We got lots of ice cream and lots of toppings. We returned home and began to pack our things for tomorrow. Its now time for bed because were leaving tomorrow and have a long ride home.
