Sunny Thanksgiving in Florida

Thursday evening we had our thanksgiving dinner at the Lawrences with a delicious turkey, and fantastic sausage stuffing, made according to the royal secret recipe.

after dinner the kids decorated the tree. It came out beautiful!!!



Friday morning we went RVing! all ten of us jumped into the RV and took a few minutes ride to Philippe Park. We parked the RV in a nice spot and enjoyed a beautiful sunny day. We had a great time.



In the afternoon we came back home and had a "make your own pizza" dinner.

That was yesterday (seems like long time ago) . Today we were told to wake-up early (8am) and after breakfast we headed to Clearwater beach. we arrived while you could still see the sand, before rush hour. We enjoy a beautiful day playing on the beach and just relaxing. By the time we left, the place was packed!


and a bonus photo of our nice neighbors...

That's it for today. On tomorrow's schedule we have... bowling and more.

Thanksgiving day with the Lawrences

We arrived to the Lawrences last night (we planned to see them only today morning but we just couldn't wait). It took few minutes for the kids (6 all together) to play together and forget that we even exist.

We woke up early this morning, went waiting to Paul - our representative-runner in the "10K Turkey Trot" finish line.
We went home to have branch and start the preparations for Thanksgiving dinner. Paul and Maureen arranged for us a 15 pound turkey. let's see if it will be enough...

After putting the bird in the oven we went to see their new house (a palace will be better definition). We will have to come again when it will be ready!
and from there - to the Christmas tree show


on the way back home we couldn't ignore the line (or maybe campground is the right definition) next to Best Buy, getting ready to the 4am opening on black Friday. They are there since Wednesday!!!!
about thanksgiving dinner - later on.

St. Augustine

Today we visited another historic city, St. Augustine, just that this time it's Spanish. The first settlers came here in 1565. Right after entering the gate to the old city, there are many old houses, old school, old drugstore and so on. In between them there are arts and crafts stores and restaurants. Very touristic.

We enjoyed the city but 3 miles away we found the real thing...
Florida beach!!!
Our campsite for tonight and tomorrow night
We have new decorative lights (hanging on the tree), ho ho ho...

lazy day in Okefenokee

We slept in today and then walked the Trembling Earth trail on a boardwalk over the swamp

Later on we cleaned the house
and played Nintendo DS
For school we learn the Hebrew alphabet. The kids drew and put the letters on the wall
