It is convenient that we are learning about Florida this week because we just took a day trip to Daytona yesterday and went boating with my sister out to Disappearing Island. Disappearing Island is exactly what it sounds like: an island that appears when the tide goes out and disappears when it comes in again. Its cool because there are a lot of grassy areas, isolated pools where minnows get trapped when the water goes out, lots of crabs and birds and shells. It's a fun place to explore.
Here he is stalking minnows in one of the pools of water.
JJ and Noah at the end of the day, when the tide is coming in. The water comes in so fast you can literally see the island disappearing under your feet. Pretty cool.
This is right before we left. The foreground of the picture is where we set up our cooler and stuff. It was almost gone by the time we took in the anchor and left.
This morning, while Noah was learning about Florida, the trip was still fresh in his mind. While the lady on the video was talking about the coastline and all the animals that live around the beaches, Noah sighed and said, "I'm glad I was born here. You picked a good place, Mom."
Glad you agree, Noah. :)
Me, my Sister Erin, my nephew Eli and Noah.
