...from Florida.

The weird thing is that before we left, we didn't really see a lot of signs of fall, and one of the first things I noticed when I got back was that some of my trees have changed colors and one has lost half of its leaves.

I may be able to add a couple of pictures later when I get unpacked and stuff.

Where were those taken ILBT? Disney's Wilderness Park? I love giraffes. I got to have one lay its head on my chest at a country fair. They are so gentle. Nice photos. My mother in law lives in GA and where she is there are very little trees that turn color. She misses NY in autumn. Welcome home. Hope you had a great time.

The first 2 were at Busch Gardens in Tampa and the 3rd one at Sea World, Orlando.

We do see some changes in season (we're around the mountains) but I'm sure not like further north. I wouldn't know though, I've never been further north than Kentucky and Virginia.

Where in GA does your mother in law live, Virgo? I live in the northern part.

She is in Millan or something like that. A hour or so away from Savannah I think. She only moved there from FL less than a year ago and I have never been there.

My first thought on seeing the tiger and giraffes was Busch Gardens. :) Where all did you go in Florida? Gulf side, Atlantic side? I have the vague idea that Busch Gardens is on ot toward the Gulf side but I don't trust that idea much, lol. When I was a kid we used to go to Florida every summer so those pics brought back some old memories. Thanks for sharing them.

Well, we stayed in Orlando (which I love) and went to Sea World the first day. Then we drove to Tampa and back when we went to Busch Gardens (Gulf side and only 65 miles from where we were staying)
We were lazy and stayed in the other days and did some swimming.
