This trip wasn't the best trip to FL that I've ever been on, but it wasn't the worst either -- Cary and I were there in 1998 during a particularly bad bout of wildfires that forced us to cut our trip short.
It's tough to characterize the trip because we stayed with my in-laws, in their beautiful ocean-front condo. All four of us shared one room. The kids did great. Henry and Lucy both had a fantastic time, and that definitely made some of the more challenging moments -- like trying to sleep on a slanty marshmallow-like mattress when the thermostat is set to 80 degrees (which was about 20 degrees warmer than the average high temp. most days we were there) -- much easier to take.
Still, I don't think I was cut out for travel. I am so glad to be home, where fresh vegetables are plentiful, and it just so happens to be warmer today than it was in FL the day we left!

You're all home safe and the kids had fun. Sounds like a pretty good vaca. Too bad it doesn't fit the blog theme. :)
Hi Emily - we were in St. Simons, GA April 9 - 15 - very nearly the same time as you were in Fla. Next year, you should skip Fla and join us on St. Simons for laid-back beach dwelling, sea kayaking, and spa days. We rented a great house two blocks from the beach, which somewhat made up for the oh-so-freezing temps! You would, however, have to put up with the Bleyle clan!
You still haven't responded re: coming to Utah in July to see Feist at our venue ... ;-) I'm sure you could write it off as R&D.

@ Greg (if that is your real name): Yes, this is a "great vacation travel blog." I travel so often to exotic places like my local green grocer and big box store.
I'll remember never to use the word vacation in my blog again.
