On our way around the United States, we stopped at Lakeland in the
humid state of Florida. Speaking of humidity, Florida’s weather is
around 75 degrees with many mid-day storms that help keep everything
emerald-green. The water that is not used for the plants finds its way
into the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico. Another body of water
near Florida is Florida Keys. The pictures of it are breath-taking with
blue-green water all around. Not only is Florida known for its
beautiful oceans, but also for the citrus fruit and sugarcane that grow
plentifully there. We found out that another thing the state of Florida
is known for is the Everglades that take up most of the south part of
the state. The Everglades are a swampy area with 10,000 islands! There
sure are a lot of interesting things in Florida.
Not only are there
interesting things to see, but there are also a lot of fun things to
do. Some places to visit are Fort Myers, Disney World, the Daytona 500,
museums, and the Space Center. Other pleasurable activities include
surfing, beach volleyball, swimming, snorkeling, and water parks. Kids
in Florida like to play many types of tag at recess like zombie tag,
tree trunk tag, and freeze tag. They also enjoy playing a variety of
sports all year long. We’d love to stay in Florida, but after all, we
do have fifty states to visit.
P.S.
A big thanks to the students in Lakeland, FL for providing props and
screen-sharing pictures to help us get a better view of their state!
