Lake Kissimmee

We went on a two-night camping trip at Lake Kissimmee State Park this weekend. It was a lot of fun, but we got a huge storm on Friday night that dumped 1.4" in about an hour and a half. We found out that the tent we bought last week wasn't very good, and the water was coming in through the seams. We had to use all of our dirty clothes to soak up the water that was getting in.

Other than that we had a lot of fun fishing, hiking, and relaxing. Anabelle did really well for the most part, even in the very loud thunder storm that night. Here are some pics. We saw a lot of cool things like armadillos, wild turkeys, deer (one came right through our camp with its fawn), and some gators (of course).

This guy was literally about two feet away from me scrounging for bugs. They're a lot quicker than I previously thought. Never got him to roll up in a ball though.
This is Sarah's spotted sunfish. She did catch two bass that were bigger than this fish, but this was the only one of these we caught.

My largest catch. About 15" and 3 lbs.
I'm not sure if Anabelle really appreciates camping as much as we do.
