Flamingo RV Resort

We were lucky enough to be able to stay in a family RV resort while in Florida. My parents were staying at my late Grandmother's house, working, painting and cleaning out so we stayed in my parent's "house" in the RV Park. In case you didn't know, my parents live full time on the road in their 5th Wheel RV trailer...this is home sweet home for Granny and Grandpa!

We had a bit of down time to explore the park and enjoy the amenities. I grew up camping with my family but had forgotten how fun it is being a kid and just "exploring" the campground...so much wide open space to run around. We would walk around the lake at night with our flashlights, looking for "crik-criks" and frogs or just picking up sticks for fun. And the sunsets were so beautiful over the lake...

Just next to the pool was a great little playground that was all on sand. We didn't have our sand toys with us so we raided Granny's tupperware drawer and found suitable substitute.

But the best was playing at the park at night! It was so hot there, we could stay out till 9 or 10pm just swing in the warm summer night...
The resident turtles got frequent visits from us as we walked down the little pier...
Thank you Granny and Grandpa for giving us such a great place to stay...it was so much fun!
