Ferry ride

We drove our car onto the ferry and went across Mobile Bay, we saw some really interesting huge white jelly fish in the water on the way.

The underlying theme of the trip was hurricanes and tsunami's. So every time we did something we had to go through a barrage of questions regarding what we would do if a one were to hit at that moment.

If you notice the sky in this picture there is obvioulsy no threat of a hurricane suddenly descending. That didn't seem to bring the kids any comfort. Cole stayed in the car on the ferry for most of the trip in fear of a storm coming. I think the heat in the car finally drove him beyond his fears. It was very strange because Cole is typically the LAST one to be scared of anything.

It didn't help matters that the hotel we stayed at was basically devastated by the hurricane and had before and after pictures posted. With so much talk of the hurricane (Lauren was constantly saying Tsunami) I started to get a little paranoid and found myself looking for the hurricane evacuation routes wherever we went.
