We decided on a whim to go to Sebastian Inlet State Park this morning, and it was the best decision ever! They have a tidal pool that is amazing for small children because the water is so calm and shallow. (Just be sure you don't go at low tide or there's no water there!) I knew there was an occasional manatee sighting there, but apparently right now it's mating season so they were everywhere! It was awesome! I think we saw as many as 8 or 9 manatees.
Our first sighting
I think you can see 4 in this picture
Yes, that is a manatee's head like two feet from my baby!
(I was in the process of moving her away!)
Up close
There was quite a crowd watching the manatees
Our lone dolphin sighting
More manatees
Of course, we also had a little playtime on the beach...
...and in the water!
I'm not sure why, but I love this picture.
Here's a video of the manatees

I don't say this very often but I'm so jealous right now! You live close to some of the coolest places! It looks like it was a great time!
Ugh, I need to move...I'm so over this place!
I want to go there! How amazing!
