Sailing


Last week we went sailing for the first time (for both myself and Tyler) with Janice and her friend (now also our friend!) Ross.
It's Ross's boat and it's beautiful:
When we got there it was up on these stilts from having some work done, and Tyler was helping Ross get some stuff on and off the boat before it got put in the water.

Then when they got the big thing to carry it over to the water, I sat and waited



This is the "big thing that carries the boat into the water"





Tyler even got to steer the boat for a while, and so did Janice:





OK so this was really cool, we were boating around, and all of a sudden we saw the SPACE SHUTTLE going up into the sky! I tried to get a picture, because you could actually see the shuttle, not just the stream across the sky, it was sparkling in the sun and everything! But, it was going so fast this was all I could get a picture of:


After a little bit, we started to get more brave, and wandered around the front of the boat and everything










I love this picture!!!

Tyler was so excited, at one point out in the ocean we tied up to these big white things anchored down and swam around in the ocean. The water was so clear and blue, we could look over the side of the boat and see the reef below. So Tyler put on the mask and the flippers and tried to touch the bottom of the ocean.


We thought this picture was funny cause you can barely see my swimsuit. I AM WEARING ONE

After swimming, we headed back and just relaxed.

Wow! The water looks so beautiful, and that's awesome that you got to see the space shuttle blasting through the sky! Looks like you guys are getting to do so many neat things in Florida!
