WHAT A GREAT HOLIDAY WEEKEND!

We just came back form Fort Myers!. The Duran's invited us over to spend 3 the holiday weekend at their condo. What a great weekend we had and what a beautiful place! The kids had a blast! The first day we enjoyed the beach! Santiago chased the seagulls and the waves, he went inside the water without any fear and run up and down the beach, with Daddy behind him of course. Ana Paula, beeing the lonely girl she is enjoyed a lot catching hermit crabs and picking shells, she wasged them, look carefully at them and classified them. I was playing around with my camera trying to capture all the fun and experimenting a little bit with my big lens. We had a great sunset. The second day we rented a pontoon boat and went to the lagoon. It was so fun! we brought our fishing poles and as always we a re a bunch of losers... except for Ana Paula, she was patient enough to catch a cat fish with her barbie fishing pole! she was so excited. The when we were heading back to the marina we saw dolphins! What a great moment! there even was a baby one jumping around her mother. it was a really nice experience. Again we had a great sunset. The 4th we enjoyes the pool and the beach all day! this time Ana Paula caught some clams, did I say some? there were tons of them so she was careful enough to get one of each kind and coler, she observed them for a long long time, Santiago... well he was running around, swiming and waiting for the birds to come. Oscar realxed for a while while I played with them in the water, I even helped with the clam collection! I also had time to play with my camera. What a great day! In the afternoon and after resting we came down to the beach again to have a photo shoot, it was really hot so both the models and photographers sweat like mad people so we only took a few pics but good ones. We saw the fireworks from the condo that is in the 120th floor so we had a great view. Santi enjoyed them form inside the condo as he was afraid of the noise. We drove back at 11 pm and got home at 1 am. We are exhausted and with tons of dirty clothes to wash but we really had a great time. We are very lucky to have the chance to go to such great places. Here are a few of my favorite photos form the weekend.
