One thing I didn't know about Juno Beach until we arrived is that it's pretty much the capital of baby turtle hatch watching. After scouring the beaches every night pretty frustrated we hit double jackpots, first literally tripping over an adult Mom (thought to be a big rock by us couple of geniuses) on her way to make a nest and then practically walking into a herd of hatchlings scrambling toward the water. The cuteness that ensued cannot be described.
We also don't have many pictures as I'm sure you saw above because the flash can disorient them so you'll have to take my word on how many little scramblers there were. I do have some pictures from the turtle sanctuary, below.
After Juno, we spent my Birthday weekend in South Beach which, when I look back at the pictures, was beautiful, but the heat and humidity were so over the top that I honestly do not understand how you could live there without staying indoors the entire time. Kudos to Ryan's little brother, a South Beach resident, for his survival all this time.
As is the custom, we got caught in a MASSIVE rainstorm but luckily had already sat down for dinner a little Haitian place called Tap Tap just a few blocks off the main drag. The rum punch and beautiful murals were enough to keep us occupied until the rain let up and we cold head out to the clubs for official Miami birthday cocktails....
