One of our favorite places to take a walk in Pensacola is the UWF Edward Ball Nature Trail. It is a great place to wander around looking for animals. There are fantastic photo spots as well. As you wander through the woods, you come to a beautiful boardwalk. The boardwalk was restored after a 2004 hurricane, but you can still see remnants of Hurricane Ivan.

We saw a lot of wildlife…the kids spotted most of it on their own! While we were wandering, we saw turtles, a rabbit, birds, butterflies, and a SNAKE! Big S found it first and pointed at it saying “Mommy…look at the big worm!” After I secretly freaked, I told him it was a snake and we never touch snakes. The snake didn’t seem bothered by my children screaming but he was not happy when I snapped this picture.
Here are a few of the kids:

This week’s Travel Blogger is Teacher Meets World. The author of Teacher Meets World, Monna, is a Canadian living in Barcelona, Spain living what is admittedly my dream job! She is a teacher overseas. She gets to do the two things that I love to do…teach and travel Europe! And what a cool teacher she is…she and her hubby have a travel club! I am constantly admiring her photography and was amazed to learn that she takes most her pictures with a point and shoot. Monna has a fantastic eye for an amazing picture. That being said, she is also a fantastic writer. Her posts are full of thought provoking questions and meaningful statements. If she asks a question and you choose to answer it, she will post back to you.
Some of my favorite posts…
The way it is for little girls in Paris — This series of photos is beautiful. The little girl is just adorable and the post is great!
Palace Moments, Vienna — The picture in this post made my heart skip a beat. It is how I hope I look when someone sees me with my children!
