Today was our last full day in Destin. Yesterday we agreed to going parasailing today so when I got up, I called to make reservations. It wasn't five minutes after making them that the lady called me right back to tell me that the wind was to strong and they couldn't take any boats out today.What a bummer! We got ready and ate lunch then headed to play mini golf. Kaci and I both got a hole in one on different holes. Russ decided he was going to hit his ball over the bricks on one hole to get it to the bottom. We were a very interesting crew golfing. We didn't keep score so I can't tell you who won. We had a little bit of time to kill so we went to another tourist beach shop. We then went on a dolphin cruise. It was a boat a little bit bigger then a pontoon boat and it carried at least 20 people on it and was 3 levels. The dolphins weren't right next to the boat but they were pretty close. We drove from the harbor to the gulf of mexico and went from salt to freshwater. The cruise was a lot of fun. Kaitlin told me that she wanted me to bring her a dolphin back but since Kaci or Derrick wouldn't let us keep it in their bath tub at school we don't have a place for it to swim, nor do I think it would survive the 15 hour ride home. Derrick suggested the multi so we could even go swimming with it but Kaitlin thought even that would be to toxic for it. After our cruise we came back and went down to the beach for a bit. The waves were soo big today. You would jump over one and the next one would knock you down. After wiping out a few times, I got out because I couldn't handle the waves. We saw a jellyfish washed up on the shore. It wasn't very big and it was gone the next time a wave came. I told the others that I could of been stung by a jellyfish and that they didn't even believe me. We came in and got ready to go eat. Russ's mom suggested the Boat House to eat at and it was a great choice. I saw that they had gator on the menu and wasn't sure if I should order it even though it was one of the main things I wanted to accomplish while in Florida. I did and it was good! It tastes like frog legs or for you who haven't tried them a mixture of fish and chicken. As we were getting in the car, Katie was like hey wouldn't it be funny if a coconut was in this palm tree and fell and hit me in the head. We were like no because you dying or being unconscious would not be funny. We got back here and talk to mom for a bit and now we are watching Abduction! Great way to end a great trip! Destin, you have been great! I got to see dolphins, eat gator, swim in the ocean and see a palm tree which were the main things I wanted to do while in Florida. I wish we could have went parasailing but that will have to wait for another time. Tonight's question is what songs do you enjoy when you are happy? O happy day is the number one! or party rock anthem, what makes you beautiful and probably a lot others. Well I am off! Later!
