Sanibel & Captiva


Hello from Sanibel island. 








Bowman' s beach - Sanibel island 






We had a wonderful day on Sanibel & Captiva Islands yesterday. 

We checked out the lighthouse, did some shelling, took a nature ride in the J.N."Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge. We climbed the observation tower to view a myriad of birds basking in the sun.  Fish jumping out of the water and birds waiting to catch them. 

We walked the Mangrove Overlook Boardwalk. We saw some horseshoe crabs & all sorts of birds. This refuge is more than 6,400 acres of protected wildlife habitat on Sanibel Island.

We took a ride over to Captiva Island to see the area. There are some very large estates across from the water. Absolutely beautiful. 

After a hard day of sightseeing we stopped at a Dairy Queen for a treat. 😃

Enjoyed every minute of this lovely day. 

Pls see some of the pics. Enjoy!
