We saw "Ross the Sea Turtle" and he gave us a big flipper hug!
We ♥ the ocean.
So we went to Sea Turtle Day at Gumbo Limbo to celebrate them,
and learn the many ways to respect their liquid home.

Look how big they can get!

Just in case you thought these guys were real, they're not.
They are just life size replicas for us to play on. Aren't they awesome?
We watched an educational performance by the Sol Childrens Theatre Troupe.
Here we are discussing some of the ways we can help save water starting at home.
They said "every drop counts!"

We miss you Ashley!
Here's Anakai and Brittany petting a snake.
We saw a hammerhead shark!
Two baby hammerhead sharks live in this tank, along with a big sea turtle, some fish, and a couple of awesome starfish. Here we are learning how to respect them all.
More salt water friends :)
The twinkies aren't old enough yet to participate in the turtle hatchling release program. They'll have to wait til they're 8 years old to help the new born turtles find their way to their sea home. Until then, we're glad that our beach fronts help protect the sea turtles by keeping the shoreline dark at night. This way, there will be plenty of sea turtle eggs for us to watch in 3 years!
