Boynton Beach, FL

Back in August, (yes, I know that was a long time ago now) 

the boys and I went to visit my mom in south Florida.

She and my step-dad own a condo in Boynton Beach.

They live up north, but travel down occasionally to stay at 

their condo.  She was in Florida in August because

her aunt passed away.  It also happened to be her 

birthday the day we went to her condo.   

(Her 57th birthday...she's still a young pup!)

We stayed from Tuesday, August 19th to Saturday, August 23rd.  

We swam 4 times in her condo pool, went to the beach once,

went out to eat twice, visited with her cousin, and went to a science center.

We had a great time! 

It amazed me how different south Florida is to north/central Florida.

It was prettier there...for real.  The ocean water was more clear.

The whole area was 'ritzy'.  

The part we were at instead of being 'touristy' with tons of 

condos/hotels on the beach, there were huge mansions

on the beach.  Even one of Oprah's old houses is there...

which looks more like a massive museum that would take

days to go through.  

We can now add Boynton Beach, FL to our 'saw and conquered list'.
