Vacation shots-Part 3

You don't see this sight in the water very often...

This was near where we ate on the water at John's Pass. I just like textures/patinas going on here...
Uncle JR and Aunt bernie loaded the kids up with Bubba Gump gear. How cute is he with his hat turned around? Rosy cheeked boy...


I love all the funny signs you come across down there. We ate outside by the water and boy-those birds were relentless! They attacked the table next to us as soon as the people paid their bill and left. Gabe chased the birds away and the owner said she might just have a job for him...;)


Cute...

The pelican who waited patiently near our table.

Down by the shops Gabe spots a man with a cocketeil riding on his shoulder. (Is that how you spell that?) Anyway-the guy was so nice and goofy and let it crawl all over the kids. Gabe was a bit nervous since he said it was pinching him with it's claws.

The next thing you know the man scoops up the bird and shoves it's head in his mouth!

It shocked Gabe and got a huge belly laugh out of him.

The next morning after breakfast we headed down to the Seabird Sanctuary. We hadn't been there since Gabe was Sawyer's age. He's such an animal lover we knew we'd have to make a trip. Forgot how stinky it is...whew!

This poor little guy.....he's missing his top beak! I wonder what happened to him? We watched the guy with the fish come out to feed and he had to hand feed this guy and help get them in his mouth. :(

The view from the ocean side of the sanctuary. So pretty and calm.

Cutting back through to the parking lot from the beach Chloe and I got a little surprise. Here we are in the bathroom cleaning it out of our shirts and hair.....sigh.

The rest of the day was spent at the beach and pool-resting for our trip to Busch Gardens the next day....

Guess you know what pics will be posted tomorrow...
