Trent's last Weekend :(

At the beginning of the summer, we sat down as a family and made a list of things we wanted to do while Trent was here. We were worried that the time would go by too fast. We were right! We had crossed off quite a few items, but still had plenty left. So last Sunday we planned an action packed day.

We started off going to the Pirate Caves. Most of the people we had talked to about them, told us they were lame. Well those people must not have children. They were awesome! They had a mini petting zoo outside the caves. We saw a horse, cow, pigs, crabs, birds, goats, guinea pigs, bunnies, iguanas, and much more. Then they gave Trent a flashlight and he led us through the caves. They have fake(don't tell Trent) gold coins and skulls placed all over. He loved it! Then we went back into the gift shop and they let us hold an iguana. Apparently, they like to be high in the air, hence the one perched on Trent's head. He was soooo nervous, but he's become so much more brave with animals this summer. Check out the photo!

Then we went to see the Blow holes. These were a bit of a disappointment because the sea was so calm, that nothing was blowing out of them. Maybe next time.

We had tuna sandwiches in the car on the way to Starfish Point, our final destination. I can't believe we hadn't ever been there! It was really cool. The water was very warm and the starfish lay on the sand where the water is only 2-4 feet deep. So we just snorkeled out and picked them up. Trent was again a little leery at first, but by the end of the day we had to make him put his favorite red one down. My friend took photos of the three of us, but she hasn't emailed those to me yet, so you'll have to wait!

So our list ended up with only one item left. Not bad.... We will have to go to the skate park next time he comes to visit. Enjoy the pics!!
