sunrise

after living in florida for five years i some how forget that i am surrounded by water! although living in central florida sometimes its easy to forget there are so many great beaches to visit and just relax on. this week has been spring break for schools around here so this AMAZING friend of mine picked me up and we headed for jupiter florida. what a great 3 days we had. tuesday morning we got up and got everything ready to head to the beach. it was an beautiful 75 degrees with a light breeze. so we layed out in the sun while her niece and nephew splashed in the water. it was great to start working on my tan already, hopefully by summers end ill be nice and dark. tuesday night we cooked dinner for her family and they were all very thankful for the having someone cook it was great. wednesday we decided to get up at 6 am to go sit on the beach and watch the sunrise. it was pretty amazing, i have seen the sunrise over the mountains but can honestly say i have never just sat on the beach and watched the sun come up. the AMAZING colors of the sunrise and the sand and water just BEAUTIFUL. it was a perfect start to the day. after watching the sun come up we went and had breakfast and headed back to her parents house. after getting back her sister asked if we wanted to join them in going to the park so once again we loaded up the car and headed out to enjoy another 75 degree florida day. rather than staying in jupiter we headed for palm beach only 30 minutes away. the park was amazing. it had plenty of shade trees, tons of play areas, sand boxes, and even a section with a water playground so the kids could cool off after running around all day. i cant wait to go back and spend more time on the beach hopefully we can plan another trip soon.
