Ms. Cargyle's Winter Break
Where I Went
For Winter Break I went to Florida. We went to several different spots, but my favorite ones were Key West and Boynton Beach.
What I Did
I got to do lots of fun things. My favorite things were getting to go to the beach and the pool, eating lots of seafood, and spending time with friends.
I loved visiting my favorite spots in Key West. It was a lot of fun discovering new places too.
I got to spend Christmas in Key West, and even though the weather was kind of cloudy and rainy that day, I'm glad I was where it was warm, instead of snowy and cold!
I had never tried Stone Crabs before, and this is how they catch them. Don't worry though, they throw them back afterwards and the crabs are good to go!
How to Harvest a Stone Crab Claw
This is what I got to look at on Christmas Day.
The drive from Key West up to Delray Beach. It takes about 4 hours, but so pretty!
View from the hotel room in Boca Raton. RIght by a mall--too much shopping!
These little critters visited us on our first night in Boca Raton. Freaky!
This is Annemarie and me. No, it's not at a weird angle. She really is this tall.
We ate lots and lots of yummy food together. Notice the octopus tentacles in the lefthand corner.
Sophia was quite amused with herself and her new friend.
We went to Boynton Beach a few days. I was so sad to leave.
But I got to come home to this. :)
