Sandcastles and Forts

Last week went to see the Jacksonville Beach Sandcastle Competition! We wanted to go last year but didn't make it, so we were really excited to go this year!

On our way down the beach we saw lots of washed up Jelly Fish

These are some of our favorite sculptures:

A shark eating a foot
This dragon was awesome
Brooklyn and the manatees
and a sea turtle
I was afraid the wind would blow this castle over!
my personal favorite-A mermaid coming out of the water
Skeleton and graveyard. Everything we saw was amazing!
A couple of weeks ago we ventured out the Fort Mantanza and the beach with our friends the Mengs.

Greg and Brooklyn
and Mom and Brooklyn

The ferry to the island. The best part was that the whole tour was free!
Along the boat you could see lots of these Cannonball Jellyfish swimming around
Brooklyn LOVES the beach

and so do we!
But we don't love the terrible sunburns we came away with! Greg's legs and feet got so burned he couldn't even walk! This picture doesn't even come close to showing how swollen and burned his legs got!
We still love Florida though! There are always lots of fun things to see and explore!
