Week 2…Happy Birthday Saahil!

ByMom&Dad

Saahil’s birthday was Sunday and we spent the day by the pool and dinner at Cafe Sole where we enjoyed delicious French food. We forgot to take photos until after dessert when Harry’s patience was low and his messiness high…. oops!

On Monday Saahil and the 3 older kids went on a half day sailing and snorkel trip where they saw some amazing fish. Harry and I went to get him a haircut and check out some shops. That night we went to our favorite Cuban restaurant.

A walk one evening on the pier near our house in Key West. Note the rainbow overhead.

On Tuesday the kids and I visited the US Coast Guard Cutter Ingham a retired coast guard ship that is now a maritime museum and national landmark. (https://www.uscgcingham.org) It was a spectacular experience enjoyed by all!
