My Trip To Fort Clinch

It started out with a 4 hour drive on Friday. I had a very uncomfortable car ride because my legs were killing me, especially my calf muscles. I put in about 65 miles on the road that week. Anyway, we finally arrived at Fernandina Beach around 1:00 in the morning, got a little sleep, and was ready to hit the trails. The trails were awesome!! Some of the climbs were a little challenging for my sister. We didn't see much wildlife, but we did see some tiny crabs peeking out of their holes...that was kind of cool.

After our ride, we decided to check out the Fort. Super Cool!! It started raining just as we got there. We didn't care, it felt really good. Then, we went to the gift shop, got a cool book about Florida, then left the park to get some lunch.

After resting for a little while, we decided to go back to Ft. Clinch for another ride. We started at the beginning of the park this time. We rode for about 2 miles, then it started pouring!! We got off the trail and went on the road until we got to the back of the park. We found some shelter under the playground. It was super crazy!!! Kiki gave me her poncho because I was really cold. It finally stopped raining and we started heading back. We were soaking wet and covered in mud.

On the way out of the park we stopped to check out the lighthouse.

After dinner, my Mom kicked my sister and I out of the hotel room. We had a lot of energy so my Dad took us down to the basketball court to play around on our skate boards. We had a good time!

Say Hello to my new friend Mr. Krabs. My Dad was walking on the sidewalk and this crab tried to attack his foot. He latched on to my Dad's $5.00 bill.

We put Mr. Krabs in my bucket and took him to the beach with us. We let him go in the water.
