Swimming with the sea cows

My sister-in-law has always been fascinated by manatees. I know it's strange, with us being smack dab in the middle of the country we don't see many manatees around these parts.

Several years ago she started the tradition of going to Florida in the winter to swim with them when they come in from the ocean to gather near the warm springs of Crystal River. When my oldest son was 10 she took him with her. This year it's son #2's turn.

They left today and will be back on monday. I know they will have such a good time snorkeling in the warm water with the sea cows and enjoying the 70+ degree temperatures. For more information you can go to :http://www.homesafe.com/manatee/recommendations.html
