Andy and I were waiting at Midway's baggage claim when B and his group returned from Florida this afternoon. The plane landed about 20 minutes early. He grabbed his bag, checked out with his teacher, told some friends bye and we were on our way.
Each year the group purchases a T-shirt and this year they chose one from the Marine Lab they visited. Here are some pictures of that facility. They spent some time at SeaWorld which he says is more of an amusement park than an aquarium. He saw dolphins, a shark, alligators and lots and lots of fish. He went snorkeling and on an everglades boat tour. A couple girls got stung by jellyfish, but B just ended up with about 20 bug bites. He thought that was pretty good. Here's a picture one of the students took and his teacher emailed to all the parents of the group at dinner the last night of the trip.
At first I couldn't find B in the picture, but he's there near the bottom. He said he had a good time. His teacher said he was very easy-going, a great helper and a really pleasant kid. Aww.
We went to Gino's downtown, B's choice, for a deep-dish pizza dinner. L couldn't resist writing her name on the wall. She was wearing the turtle bracelet B brought home for her.
