Two other things that have become somewhat of a tradition on our trips to Fort Myers are a trip to Lakes Park and "salmon on Sunday" with Uncle Jon and Allie.
Our trip to Lakes Park was Wednesday when the weather was still a bit too cool for the pool and beach. It is funny though because I thought we would be hot, hot, hot due to the fact that our trip was so late this year. It started out quite the opposite which is ok seeing as it allowed us to do a few other things on the cooler days. We had some fun at the swings and playground, took a break for some lunch, caught the last train ride of the day, had some ice cream and took a walk through the botanical garden. Evan was pretty excited about the bikes and paddle boats too. I see a rental coming in our future!
Our tradition with Uncle Jon and Allie was a bit different this year. We are generally in Florida for two weekends but this year we only had one, which was also Easter. For this reason, we got together with Uncle Jon and Allie on Saturday for lunch at their house and then headed to Estero Park. They have such a lovely home and I always love visiting. I love how open and airy it is with beautiful plants and trees everywhere you look! Allie had made some special lunch "creations" for Evan and Evan enjoyed playing with Fergie. After lunch we went to Estero Park where Uncle Jon and Allie could really see Evan in action! As always, it was a (too short but) nice visit!
With all of these "Fort Myers traditions" we are going to need to increase the length of our trips...or just make multiples! Good thing Papa and Gramma bought a place at Indian Creek!!
