Washington Oaks State Gardens Park


Today we ventured out to a new place! Washington Oaks State Gardens Park.
It is on two sides of the road...
The first side has beautiful gardens.....and swarms of mosquitoes big enough to carry away a small child!
The second has a gorgeous coquina beach.


We attempted to view the gardens.
I really wanted to try, but after visibly seeing at least 20 mosquitoes swarming 1 child when we stopped to look at some fish we decided to run for the car.


So, the beach it was.
It has been extremely hot here lately, but the breeze at the beach was wonderful.

There were a ton of sea turtle nests!

So, we are tying in a lesson on sea turtles, conservation, and coquina rocks.

(multitasking!)



The kids really enjoyed the coquina rocks, and just walking on the beach!

We will go back to check out the gardens more when we are covered in bug spray!

Enjoys the rest of the photos it the slide show!
