Manatees!

Kelli, Zoe, Andy, and Lynn came to visit this weekend and we all went swimming with the manatees at Homosassa springs....this was one of the most amazing things I have ever done! It was so awesome to be in the water with these animals. The manatees were like big puppy dogs. They loved to have their backs scratched and then occasionaly they will turn over on their backs so you can rub their belly! As long as you kept petting them they would stay right by you. We even got to see a calf manatee and the mom. It was awesome to observe their behavior in the wild. After 2hrs of playing in the water we headed back with hot chocolate in hand:)
