The crazy winds from Sunday continued into Monday, bringing with them the threat of rain...well, more like imminent promise of rain - definitely beyond "threat" level.

| It was also slightly humid, if you couldn't tell from Curly here |
With the hopes of a day at the beach dashed, we set out to have a little indoor fun for the day, visiting the South Florida Museum in downtown Brandenton. The museum is the home of
Snooty, the world's oldest known manatee (he's 65 old!!)

| Things started getting a little silly |
 |
| There's Snooty! He seems a bit lazy, doing nothing but slowly eating lettuce while we watched him, but at the age of 65, he's probably earned the right to slow things down a little. |

We also caught a show at the museum's planetarium - the girls' first ever visit to a planetarium, and I'd say it's been a good couple of decades since I've been on the inside of one. It was a good way to spend the morning, and we got in the car just as it started to rain. We headed back to Grandma and Grandpa's for a quiet afternoon inside. After all of the go-go-go, fresh air, and extremely late bedtimes from the week, it wasn't all bad to be stuck inside relaxing.

| We did venture out a little later for ice cream - it was, after all, our last day of vacation |
