Adventures on the Florida Coast!
April was an exciting month for the Crane family! We adventured to the Florida coast of Miami. Our mission? To soak up some much-needed sunshine and conquer one of my wildest dreams: cage-free shark diving!
Now, let me preface this by saying that Jasper is not exactly what you'd call a thrill-seeker. He's more of a "lounge by the pool with a good drink" kind of guy. But being the loving and supportive partner he is, he begrudgingly agreed to accompany me on this adrenaline-pumping expedition.
Picture this: the sun is blazing, the waves are crashing, and there I am, geared up and ready to face the deep blue sea. Jasper, on the other hand, is eyeing the boat with a mix of apprehension and resignation. There's something awe-inspiring about being in the presence of these beautiful creatures, knowing that you're sharing their world even if just for a moment.
Now, I'll spare you the dramatics and cut to the chase: I survived! But our adventure didn't end there. After our shark expedition, we spent the rest of our time in Miami unwinding and soaking up the sun. From lazy days on the beach to indulgent dinners overlooking the ocean, it was the perfect way to recharge and reconnect.
And as I reflect on our trip, I can't help but feel grateful. Grateful for the opportunity to chase my dreams, grateful for a partner who's always by my side (even if it means facing his fears), and grateful for the incredible team back home who supported me every step of the way. Taking time to rest and restore is SO IMPORTANT!
So here's to adventure, to facing your fears, and to taking the time to bask in the sunshine of life.
