This week my family and I came back from our annual vacation
to Sanibel Island, Florida. Sanibel
Island holds a special place in my heart, for the last 30 years my wife and I
have taken our daughters there for our annual beach vacation. This year was a little different, my oldest daughter
and her new husband could only come for the weekend. It was his first time on Sanibel; I hope the
tradition continues and expand to our new member of the family.
Most of my time was spend enjoying the beach, reading and
taking pictures of birds and nature. There
is no better way to disconnect from the real world and relax. This year the WIFI was not working in the
condo, we suffered some connectivity withdrawals the first couple of days but
adjusted after.
These are my favorite pictures from Sanibel.
Walking the Island trails
Osprey birds having lunch
Lots of biking around the Island
I love to take pictures of Pelicans
Sand sculptures (I didn't make this whale)
Didn't catch anything
No words necessary
The garden did not suffer much during my absent, it rained
in Miami almost every day. Two weeks away and the garden looks like the
gardeners has been away a lot longer

Oh yes! I've been to Sanibel Island with my family only once and it was beautiful. I remember seeing coconut trees for the first time and thinking...this REALLY is a tropical place. We also loved the lighthouse and the poinciana trees in full bloom. And of course the sand is snow white. And the beautiful seashells...now I want to go back!

You look so relaxed. One word sprung to mind. Serenity.
Wow, gorgeous place! Looks like y'all had a great, relaxing time. I'm gonna have to get over there someday. My neighbors go every year for their vacation as well, but I have never been in my whole life, and I grew up in Florida!
Sanibel is a beautiful and relaxing place. I need to get back there soon.
Ah, Sanibel! I was there only once over 50 years ago but still remember finding wonderful seashells with my siblings. Sounds like you had a relaxing and wonderful time.
