Hot and raining???

This morning we had a little bit of rain.  The kids were so excited to put on their swim suits and get wet in the rain, but they weren't cold!  
 We visited the pool in the morning.  This photo shows the pool, a bit of grass, then it is the beach.  It was a great location!
 After rest, we went back into Mobile to visit with Matt's aunt, uncle and cousins.  We visited the alligator walk.  We saw two, this one was what seemed to be a "normal" alligator size (like I know what "normal is!).
 We kept walking and saw a turtle cross the sidewalk.  It seemed to be wanting to get back in the water.  Matt picked it up and put it near an opening.  Once it made it's way through the opening it fell into the water.  It was funny to see it drop down!
 And this was the big (in my comparison, HUGE) alligator we saw.  We had seen it swimming farther away when we first arrived but it wasn't close by so it was hard to tell just how big he was.  Once he stopped swimming in a location close to the path we saw just how big he was.  Matt's aunt estimated he was 18 feet long.
 Yup, "Gator Alley"!
