Snorkeling
Abby had her first real snorkeling experience the other day. She did great! We went out to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and were lucky enough to see some fantastic fish, including lots of reef fish, a nurse shark, a couple baracuda, and of course, beautiful coral. Even I learned a lot as I took Abby thru the coral aquarium when we got back - coral is made from living animals and their skeletons actually are the coral, it takes 500 years for it to grow, it can only live in waters within a 5 degree temperature range, and is easily damaged by pollutants.
