For spring break this year we headed to Orlando to visit Josh's only sibling that doesn't live in Abilene. On the way, we stopped in the Galveston area for a quick visit with our friends, Derek and Charriss. We got to explore both the west and east coasts of Florida, did a few things in the Orlando area, and camped at a national seashore in Pensacola. We put about 3500 miles on our car and had a great time! I've got a ton of pics to share, so this is just the first batch. Enjoy!

The pelicans and seagulls got the fish scraps that were leftover after cleaning the fish. |
|
"We're still hungry- got any more fish?" |
|
"Yeah, I'm looking at you. Give me more fish!" |

Another car hits 100,000! |

Yay! |
