August 2013: Florida

The Lane kids enjoyed their annual end-of-summer vacation in Naples again, with plenty of trips to the beach and plenty of laps around the pool. Simon also did a lot of fishing, and he even learned to snorkel. Baba and Papa were champion hosts, as usual, even though the kids did their best to wear out the grandparents and wreck the house...
