Hurricane Interruption

We knew when we were driving down to the beach that there was a hurricane coming.  We kept a good eye on the weather while we were there and we decided to "evacuate" to Fort Myers the day that it was supposed to hit.  We packed up our stuff and headed insland, as to not be on a barrier island during a hurricane!  We had a fantastic lunch at The Shrimp Shack and then we went to this fun orange place.  We sampled different juices and then got ice cream!







It was raining so hard but everyone enjoyed their ice cream!





After that we checked into our hotel, ate dinner, and then swam in the indoor pool.  After that we got everyone ready for bed and tried our best to get everyone to go down to sleep.  It's pretty hard sleeping with 3 kids in a hotel room, but we did our best!  Noah woke up a good bit, so by morning, I was exhausted!  We were happy to head back to our resort the next morning when the hurricane had passed.



We were greeted by flooded areas and angry, dark waves!







I was just glad that no serious damage had been done to any structures and generally, people were safe!

A rainy day at the beach is still better than a good day anywhere else. If your lucky enough to be at the beach....you're lucky enough! Love the smiles on the boys' faces!
