We went on another one of the school funded trips on Monday up the Indian River. It was so fun. The kids have been wanting to do this since we first got here, and we have just never done it. The river runs right though the main road going from Picard to Poutsmouth, down to the ocean. They don't allow motor boats up the river, so they have a whole bunch of "guides" that row you up and back. Our guide had been doing it for 15 years! There were thousands of HUGE crabs all along the banks- he said that they are protected there, so they just hang out and can't get caught. There were also lots of Iguanas, birds, and flowers. There is also a spot where they filmed Pirates. Once you get to the top there is a Rum Bar where you can order drinks. Erick let Kyler order some water, he thought that was pretty funny to let Kyler order from his first bar at 2 years old!
On our way home it started to rain, actually more of a down pour! Everyone in all the boats were getting umbrellas, pretty funny to see all these boats coming down the river with about 6 umbrellas per boat! Our guide told us that is was just Dominican snow!

Leslie, I love reading all your blogs and looking at your darling pics, but it makes me miss you guys!!! I can't believe how much Bryn and Kyler have grown. Bryn looks like a little lady, and Kyler no longer has that "toddler" look. I am so excited to see you at Christmas.
Hey Leslie I didn't even know you had a blog! Can I add you to my list of friends? Our blog is private but I'd love to stay in touch email me and I'll add you to my group. scottandtasha@gmail.com
Looks like another fun trip. You inspire me to find all the fun that is to be had here in Oklahoma. Not quite the same amount of excitement can be had at seeing longhorn but we'll take what we can get. Keep having fun.
