Fishing!!!

Addison has been asking to go fishing for quite some time, so we were excited to see that our hotel at DisneyWorld had a catch and release fishing area. We headed over there Saturday morning.


It was early, but already very hot and sunny! When we went to get her pole and bait, the man was a little discouraging. He warned us that it was probably too hot for the fish to be biting and that it would require a good measure of patience and quiet! Not two of our strong points!!!

I stuck around to watch Addison grab her first worm (YUCK!!!) and help her Daddy put it on the hook. Then, Reagan and I headed off to the playground so our noise and activity wouldn't further scare off the fish. Tommy didn't expect to last more than about 10 minutes and said he would meet me at the playground.

30 minutes later, when they hadn't shown up yet, Reagan and I headed back to the lake, just in time to see Addison bringing in a tiny little fish. She was so excited, and even touched the thing (YUCK AGAIN!!!). It was actually the 2nd fish she had caught. Apparently she has a knack for fishing.

Sadly there were several little boys watching her from the dock. They had all been at it for a LONG TIME with no luck! They were forced to stand there and watch the little girl catch all the fish.
