An Afternoon on the Boat

Saturday we decided that we were due for a little boating. Alex and I hadn't been out in roughly 6 weeks.... which is a long time for us. We were going out every weekend and sometimes after work too. So we decided it was time to see how Bridget liked the boat.... and the ocean. She had mixed feelings. =) We tried to put up the umbrella, but when we went any faster than really really slow it tried to blow away. So to shield her from the sun on the ride out to Sanibel (where we anchored) I just had to cover her with a beach towel.... the part she did not care for. Once we could put the umbrella back up, it was a good time! She even got in the water with daddy! She didn't seem scared or fussy so I assume she loved it and will be a little water baby (hopefully). We didn't stay too long, just enough for Alex and I to both get a little burned.... we were too concerned about Bridget getting in the sun and not paying attention to ourselves I guess. Plus it has gotten to the rainy season and we didn't want to get caught in a storm. Oh... but on the way out we saw 2 manatees!!! I was sooo excited... we see Dolphins everytime we go out (not exagerating) but we have never seen Manatees before. We saw a group of dolphins too.
