Sanibel Day 1

Hey y'all!!!!!!

Oh My Gosh!!!!!!!  I LOOVE this hotel!  :)  It has free wi-fi AND computers.  ;)  I'm blogging from one of the computers in the lobby. 

TODAY WAS SO FUN!!!!

After I last blogged to y'all.......
I went to lunch!!!  We went to this really cool little beachy restaurant called the Island Cow.  It was REALLY good food, and the decorations were really creative and fun.  ;)  In Florida, the 'Bigfoot' is called the Skunk Ape, and they had a bunch of "Skunk Ape Sightings" pictures on the wall near the bathrooms.  All the pictures looked like someone in a Chewbacca costume.  xDD

After that, we went to the Shell Museum.  It was SO much fun!!!  :D  We just learned about shells in school, so getting to learn even more about them all was really cool!  We saw a movie about Mollusks in their auditorium, and can I just say that Mollusks are the MOST disgusting creatures EVER.  Snails, Slugs, Octopi, Squids, Clams, Oysters, and Sea Cucumbers fall into the Mollusk Family.  I'm never, EVER eating a Clam or Oyster again.  :P  SO GROSS!!!!!!   XP

After some more fun at the Shell Museum, we went to the Lighthouse.  :)  It was really cool, even if we couldn't go up in it.  ;P
Instead, we walked on the beach!!!  WE SAW DOLPHINS!!!!!!!!  Like, three dolphins!!!!  I got within 7 feet of one of them!!!!!  It was so incredible.  They were wild too!!!  We got tons of awesome shells, and I got totally wet.  :P  Of course, I wasn't wearing a swimsuit.  xD  Poor planning on Mom's part.  xD

After probably an hour or so of that, we got ice cream and went shopping!!!  Shopping was really fun.  ;)  Near our hotel is an outlet mall. The mall had TONS of cool stores that they don't have in town!  My sister and I got our first real pair of Crocs.  :)  You know those little things you put in the hole of the shoes?  Jibbetz?  I got one.  ;)  It was Luke Skywalker.  I'm all excited.  xDD  My sister got a Tangled Jibbetz in hers.  I'm slightly jealous. 

Then we went to the re-sale book store.  OH MY GOSH!!!  I got 4 Star Wars X-Wing books!!!!!  I got 2, 4, 6, and 8.  xD  Now all I need are 1, 3, 5, and 9!!!  LOL, I think they're only 8......Amaranthine?  Andriee??  Anyone??  xDD  let me know how many!  ;)  Thanks!

Animal Count:
3 Dolphins
5 Osprey
1 Tortoise
A lot of Mollusks

Now we're back at the hotel, chilling out for the rest of the night.  ;)  this no-Internet-for-the-whole-trip thing isn't working out like my mom planned.  xDD  I'll most likely get to post everyday about my adventures in Sanibel Island!!!  Yay!!! 

Ooh, and many, many thanks to Abby (The Director) for the Journal I got in the blog giveaway!!!!  I've been using it all day!!!!  :D  Yay!!!  *hugs*  Thanks girl!

Now my dad is nagging at me to get off the computer.....so bye for now!!!!!  :(  I'll be back soon, don't worry!  LOL!

And thanks to my 30 followers!!!!!!!!  I'm so lucky to have all of you!!!!!!  I'll beat you yet Endor!!!!!!!  (btw Endor, I finished chapter 4.  xDD  I'll send it to you maybe tomorrow or the next day if I get a chance.)  :D

Tons of Luv,
Jedi~Chick <333

P.S. I wanna be an Editor when I grow up.   I really enjoy it.  I'm a Beta reader for Endor's fanfiction story, Suffering and Silence, and I'm an editor for Chibi's book Destaria's Only Hope.    I was working on that and Endor's story on the way here, and WHOA Chibi needed an editor.  xDD  You can't list things without commas!!!!!!!  Bah!!!  I was smacking my head against the window.  :P  Overall though, her story rocks.  It's the spelling and grammar that need SERIOUS help.  ;P  LOL!!!  Anyway, I'm done now.  xDD
