The CK Daily – Adventures in the Florida Keys
Good morning and Happy Wednesday!
This week my husband and I have been enjoying time in the Florida Keys and it has been beautiful! The weather is perfect and the water is so refreshing to get in. We’ve been able to go on some grand adventures so far, but I’m convinced that nothing will beat our kayaking adventure yesterday. We set out on one of the normal kayaking strolls that we normally take when we are here and we’re heading back when a group of 4 manatees swam right under my kayak!! It was incredible!
Growing up, my great-grandmother used to write me letters and tell me that she would always see manatee here and that she would feed them fresh water and lettuce. Every time I visited I would pray that I would see one, but never did. It wasn’t until last year when we were down here that we saw the first one, and ever since then we’ve been so lucky that they’ve stuck around and make appearances!
When they passed under our kayaks yesterday, they began circling around us and playing – I’d call this moment a core memory!
It’s such a sweet feeling to be here to remember all of the memories that I have with my family but also to share them with my husband and soon our sweet kiddo! We’re looking forward to being able to bring him down here to fall in love with this place just like we are!
Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the week!
Thanks so much!
