What kind of bird WAS that?







One of our funnest....or funniest nights we had at Cape San Blas was at a local restaurant (which took us about 45 minutes to get to) named Toucan's. Now let me explain this place to all of you so you will appreciate the story. This place is huge and has an outside deck on the beach where you can eat and also a bar overlooking the beach and a gift shop. Something different on every level. The name "Toucan's" is splashed everywhere on the actual building...on signs, painted on the side of the building, on the gift shop, all over the menu, on their shirts, etc. I mean there is no mistaking that this place is called Toucan's which is obviously paying homage to the cute tropical bird which graces the ever memorable Fruit Loops box. You can even meet Tookie the Toucan down in the gift shop and hold him and watch him catch bracelets in mid air. Okay, I'm not one for exotic animal ownership but he was so damn cute! So after a couple of shots and drinks and a seafood dinner we wander to the giftshop, meet Tookie, take some pics and try on the ultra luxe white flip flop. I can't believe that had it my size!!! We pile into the car to make the 45 minute trek back to the condo and Brandon has the most mind blowing profound question EVER asked on the face of the Earth. He sincerely asked...so what type of bird was that back there anyway?ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Bursts of laughter ensue and last for several minutes. I mean tears running down our face laughter. Tookie certainly couldn't have been a Toucan right?!?!
