Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park

For mothers day we surprised mom by taking her over to Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park.

I was pretty excited about this day, mostly because if you haven't noticed I'm super duper in love with animals!!

Not only was it an awesome time to look at cute and vicious animals, I actually learned a few things I didn't know prior to this visit.
Such as hippos are extremely lazy and just kind of lay there in the sunshine. Or how it's awkward when an owl stares directly at you without blinking, or that even the Florida Cougar is rarely scene, and when it is, it's sleeping in a tree.




Also, did I mention we got to ride along the river on a boat? Yes, that was pretty cool, and there was even a 'tour guide' who would speak through the microphone and tell us about the things we're seeing,
such as "oh that's a Anhinga bird over there" or "look at those snapping turtles over there by that rock" and so on.


Also, It was Joshua's first boat ride! It was such a fun day!! :) We also went out to eat at a Japanese Resturant afterwards, the food was good <3 I'm glad mom had a nice Mother's Day... it made us all very happy.
