Our Vero Beach Vacation

Our vacation to Vero Beach was perfect! We had such a great time and were able to relax and just enjoy our time as a family.

We stayed at the Disney Vacation Club resort. This was our second time there. The last time we were here, in 2009, it rained all week long! We had much better weather this time.

We checked in on Saturday afternoon and went straight to the pool. There was a little pirate ship toddler play area, but Michael preferred the the big pool and the big water slide. 

Pirate Ship Fun!
Michael loved the Big Slide! He rode it more than any of us!
The ocean was way too rough for Michael to play in, but he loved to look at the ocean, and watch the big waves.

 We ate some wonderful meals on vacation. On Sunday morning we went to brunch buffer and we all ate our fill. On Monday evening was the pirate dinner with Goofy and Donald. Michael loved the characters from a distance, but once they got close, he got really shy. Of course, he does that with people he knows too. 
 We ate off property one night at Squid Lips. It was really good food, with a great view!

Saturday morning was Goofy's Breakfast buffet with Goofy and Donald.
We didn't do anything too exciting on vacation. It was just nice to get away and relax for 8 days!
Michael loved the playground!
He also loved the alligator and shark
