Dolfun tour

Steve and Carol paid for us all to go on a Dolfun tour to see Dolphins (of course).  We regularly see dolphin fins when we are driving over the causeway and twice we have been swimming in the ocean when dolphins have come to feed on fish just feet away from us.  This was an opportunity to really get close to them though and it was fun for all of us.  I had no idea there were that many dolphins in the brackish water.  Later that night the two older boys got to go on a camp out with the scouts.  They took canoes and kayaks and hauled their stuff over to an island in the middle of the river where there were campsites.  They got there at night and said they saw tiny bio luminescent jellyfish.  The next morning they went kayaking for two hours and dolphins swam right by them.  They also saw these crazy black crabs that live in the mangroves.  They just climb up in the trees and hang out.  The boys had all kinds of cool stories to tell about the wildlife they saw on their camp out.  Isaac was a little worried at first about kayaking in such deep waters but he said, "I have to go!  How many people can say they have been camping on an island with dolphins swimming all over the place?!"  These are the things I will miss about Florida when we move.
