Attacked by Seagulls

I have a couple stories about the wonderful seagulls in Florida. First, Aliyah and I were sitting on the beach while everyone else was swimming in the ocean. We were eating some popcorn and a little bird walked up right beside us. I threw a piece of popcorn to the bird and before I knew there were 50 more. They were flying RIGHT next to us and sqwaking really loud. Aliyah was holding a handful of popcorn and I thought they were going to attack us!! When Brandon turned to see what was going on, he laughed first and then came to help us. My sister's bf grabbed a handful of popcorn and started walking away and they all followed him. A bunch of the birds sat by our stuff and just stared at it after we all got in the water. It was kind of scary....but now its funny :)! At least I got some good pics from the experience....right? ;)

On our way to the airport, we stopped at a Wendy's to get some lunch. Brandon always picks the lettuce, tomato, and pickles off his burgers. He threw them out the window and before we knew it, there were a ton of seagulls next to the van!! They are SOOO loud when there is food around!! We had to go park somewhere else. There were people sitting outside eating and Brandon said to me "They're probably thinking stupid tourists...don't know not to throw food outside!!" LOL!! Back here in Illinois, we don't have to worry about a hundred birds attacking you if you throw food...thank goodness!!!
