Our day at Sea

These are some family photos of our day on the Ally Cat. (More on the Ally Cat in another post). What an incredible day it was. Trace was a bit nervous before hand worried that the boat would turn over and therefore sink. Once we got to the boat and he was able to see how large it was he calmed down a little. It also helped that a handful of his friends and other kids were there. After he was shown all of the controls of the boat and what to look for on the computer he would often go down and make sure that we were going the "right way". I am not at all surprised that he was into the mechanics of the boat. He enjoyed the sailing lifestyle, which doesn't surprise me either. Having someone make his lunch and bring him drinks, chilling on bean bags sailing on the open water. He even snorkeled and swam quite a ways to a cave. Alex on the other hand, or I should call her mermaid, didn't care anything about the boat except that it took her out to the open sea so she could swim and swim and swim some more, oh and then swim, and jump and dive and jump and swim, you get my drift. She could have cared less about snorkeling, even though it involved swimming. Alex and Trace are a perfect pair, he will be the entrepreneur that will own a grand boat of some type and he will sail his princess mermaid sister around the world to hot surf spots.
