Sanibel (part two)

Zander enjoyed biking to several meals while we were on Sanibel island - here he is getting geared up:

"To breakfast please, chauffeur!"

Playing in the Gulf with Mommy:

Another walk... and another nap!

Zander's favorite meal of the trip was at Cheeburger Cheeburger, where his grilled cheese came in a vintage Ford convertible:

The convertible was just the right size for Puppy:

We bought a couple things at the store next to the restaurant - Zander had a blast carrying the big shopping bag (you can see his red convertible sticking out):

 Running fast!

Heading out, shopping bag in hand:

Then we hit Pinocchio's for some of Sanibel's best ice cream:

Checking out Pinocchio's long nose:

On our bike ride back from breakfast the next day, we stopped at a fun playground to burn off some energy.  Climbing:

Sliding:

Someone is blocking the slide!!

Whee - going very fast!

Catching a nap on the bike ride home:

After nap time, we saw many Rays swimming in the shallow water right along the shore.  Not sure if they were Cownose Rays, Manta Rays, or Sting Rays, but they were fun to watch!  (and hard to photograph)

More playing in the sand:

Standing in the big hole:

Mommy in front of her favorite plant - the hibiscus, right in front of our 'Raspberry Cottage':

Lovely!

Attempt at family portrait:

The very end of sunset that night!

Mmmm... breakfast!

Here Zander is playing with his Trunki (which transported his toys):

It doubles as a riding toy - wheee!

Even Dooly can take part in the fun:

Hanging out on the couch:

Heading out on the bikes:

Big boy Zander climbing in by himself - "I do it!!"

Our visit to Sanibel was a wonderful family getaway!  Zander enjoyed the adventure and it was so fun to see him experience new things.  We are thankful for the special memories we created along the way with our Beach Boy!
