VACATION



We are currently on vacation at Dauphin Island. This was a last minute plan therefore the only home we could find available during spring break was in dauphin island. As it turns out, this is a great location! Very private beach, no crowds and the kids and dog can run and play without any worries. We have water on both sides of our home. One side is relatively calm where we can fish and the other side is rough with lots waves for the kids to play. Our home is beautiful and plenty of space for all of us.
I brought what I thought was my USb cable to hook up to my camera so that I could post them daily on the blog. I actually brought the wrong cable so I'm stuck with website pictures until I get home.
Max caught three sting rays but also caught a 20 lb. red fish that we ate the first night. It was pretty good.
We have seen a lot of sea urchins around from sting rays, dolphins, hermit crabs, and jellyfish. Aimee was out riding the waves with the boogie board and two large jellyfish wrapped around both of her thighs which of course, stung her multiple times. Needless to say, she was in a lot pain. We almost took her to the hospital. The pain was so intense, her eyes rolled back in her head and her body shook for a few hours. The key to stings, in case no one knows, rinse with sea water not fresh, pour vinegar over the sting or stings, and use a razor to remove all the stingers, then of course take benedryl.
Other than the jellyfish drama, we are having a really good time! We have taken a lot of pictures that we will share once we get home.
