It's been a pretty laid back and relaxing vacation (I haven't even taken a beach walk!). I finally managed to take a few pics today. We had a family of manatee under our boat dock this morning. I took several pics, but none came out. Also, saw dolphin today and I wasn't happy with any of those pics either. But, I've posted both before anyway. ;-)

These are just various shots at different spots. It was a hazy day, so I don't think they turned out so well.







These are at the Marina (Salty Sam's) and the restaurant (Parrot Key).









Kitty joined us across the table at breakfast...





I didn't do any Easter decorating, but thought we needed flowers, so picked a few from my yard this afternoon.

What gorgeous shots Jayne! Give me sunny haze anyday over the rain and wind we had here today. What a fabulous bouquet!!! That rose is luscious. Glad you're having a relaxing time, you deserve it.

Bingo, Jain. Yes, it's a gardenia. Only two blooms, but full of buds...I'll miss the bloom time and it's my favorite flower.

Thanks Suzy and Mary. I love the flowers here so much.

Oh, Jayne, the gardenia pic is breathtaking...I just wish I could smell it.

Everything is so bright and sunny and to me cheery.

I'm happy for you that you could take this respite in this dreary, never-ending winter.

Great pictures, Jayne! Love the one of Kit, looking so regal, but the kitchen table one is so cute :) A hazy day in Paradise is still Paradise and it looks like a great time! Thanks for sharing. Keep them coming!

Well that gardenia had me fooled!!! Oh my goodness how I would love to smell it. It's definitely in my top 10 flowers in the world. I have a small one that I planted last year. It's kind of marginal here, so I hope it blooms for me. But you have a big momma there. Love it!

Sounds wonderful, Jayne! Thank you for the warmth, color and sights of Florida - so welcomed here. I can almost smell that gardenia...
