Visiting Loggerhead Marinelife Center


From Instagram: Learning about loggerhead rescue and rehabilitation {and melting in the heat!}.


Well, I had the best intentions of getting back to my regular blogging schedule this week…and then the baby got roseola. After a few days of fever and fussiness, I was just too far behind to make it happen. But it IS coming (with a fun new header and site design as well!), and as we head back home next week, I’m actually really looking forward to getting back to our regular schedules and routines.


Yesterday we visited Loggerhead Marinelife Center in Juno Beach and I think it may be our new favorite place! We got to see about 15-20 rescued sea turtles at different stages of recovery and learn about the local marinelife, all for a $5 donation at the door for our whole family. The girls are all begging to go back for various activities in the future, and I definitely think we’ll make regular visits!
