Thanksgiving in Florida

Massimo had the pleasure of spending his Thanksgiving holiday with Nanny and Grandpa in sunny and pleasantly warm Florida. Unlike the frigid weather that gripped New York City for the holiday weekend - the actual Thanksgiving holiday was quite unseasonably warm which was a pleasant surprise for fans of the Thanksgiving Day parade - southern Florida was in the balmy upper 70's and low 80's most of the time. Those temperatures gave Massimo the opportunity to swim in an outdoor pool (not actually swim, of course, as he is only 18 months old but instead be bobbed around the water by daddy) while enjoying both the water as well as the ear-to-ear smiles of Nanny and Grandpa relaxing in the poolside shade.

As most parents are cautious about their little ones in the summertime sun, so should they be cautious about them being in the sun while on holiday. That's why Massimo always has his Body Glove wetsuit with him whenever he travels to warm climates. Not only does it keep his little body warm while he is in the water (yes, children do get chilly even in heated pools of 80 degrees) but it also protects him from the harmful UV rays from the sun.


Although this photo is from a few month ago (yes, we forgot our camera while packing the night before - I cant believe it!) you can see how well the Body Glove lycra wetsuit protects his arms, back, and all the way down to his knees from the sun, while also helping him to keep warm. So when you plan your winter vacation to the warm, clear blue waters of someplace with swaying palm trees and soft sand, remember to pack that little lycra wetsuit.

As usual, Amazon has Body Glove products for children as well as for adults (Massimo's daddy wears one whenever he goes in the water) and at very reasonable prices. Please use the link above or the icons in the right margin to shop for this Body Glove wetsuit or many other products sold at Amazon.
