8 Reasons Why Our Florida Holiday Was Absolutely Amazing!

*Collaborative Post

In March this year, we visited Florida for the very first time. If you have read some of my other blogs you will know that this wasn’t a holiday that had been planned well in advance, in fact, we only knew six months prior because the idea came about due to my husband needing to go out there for work.

Visiting Clearwater Marine Aquarium

Of all the things we got up to whilst in Florida, one of my favourite days was our visit to Clearwater Marine Aquarium. This is not your typical aquarium, which, for me, is perfect because I really am not a fan of animals and creatures being kept in captivity. The Clearwater Marine Aquarium is a rescue centre and has taken in thousands of injured or orphaned sea life over the years, rehabilitated them and released those that are able to survive in the wild.
