Blake and I just got back from our first vacation together at Sanibel Island! What a trooper he was to go on a vacation with me, my mom, my 11 year old cousin, aunt, uncle, and three dogs. It was a full house to say the least! I could not have asked for a better person to have come with me on the trip. It takes a special person to deal with all of us and he did it better than I did.
Sanibel is not your typical Florida tourist spot but it is right down the road from the very touristy spot, Fort Myers Beach. It only has two fast food restaurants on the island (Subway and Dairy Queen) and they were put on the island before a rule was instated that no chain restaurants be on the island. It is full of local businesses, bike paths, sea shells, and RELAXATION!
We spent the week relaxing on the beach, playing with Sanibel Critters, fishing (look at the gallery to see what I caught!), biking, and eating... ALOT! We had to make a stop at the Bubble Room!
