Our second day in this area. Awoke to sunny skies...a bit cool in the morning and of course a breeze...that breeze seems to be following us wherever we go.

Morning walk and swim...
she's still not excited about the salt water but she's always ready for a swim..




This dog is not joining Gracie, just interested in watching...

Our beach area at the campsite...pretty small but still white sand.


Left Gracie at the RV today as many of the beaches in this area do not allow dogs (ug) so no beach for her today...Headed into Pensacola beach area....the area I love...



Our first stop was Fort Pickens State Park which we had stayed at on our last USA Trip in 2013.

And like our last trip!!! Armadilo!!!!
They are so cute!!
Only one but feeling lucky to have seen this little dude!


There are boardwalks everywhere leading into the beach areas


We love the Florida Beaches!!!
with miles and miles and miles of pristine white quartz sand...
among the whitest and cleanest in the world....

One day I would love to stay in this area of Florida....
on these beautiful endless white sand beaches....
until I become tired of them and need to move on....
...that may take a week....
or a month....
or I may never tire of them....and may never leave....






And along the boardwalk back we saw this Great Blue Heron....
just hanging out looking for some breakfast!

We drove into Pensacola Beach which is one of the busier beaches in this area...and it's not really even busy right now...mid week...late April...parking lot pretty empty.  Apparently in about a month...the craziness begins.


Beer and Fish Tacos....yum


It's so windy today that the sand looks like it is constantly moving and it actually stings at times when it hits your legs!!!

Some of my favourite Beachside places...


And they did say this area is UFO Zone!!!

Love this one...guess they couldn't decide which was their favourite beach colour...so they chose them all!! Love it


This is the bridge back to Navarre where we are staying...just a tad breezy!!


Another beautiful Florida sunset....ahhh

It's been windy for quite some time....like weeks...this morning it's pretty calm...but they are calling for more wind in the afternoon..... Decided to ride our bikes into St. George and check it out...really small casual little beach city... More white sandy beaches....this time with lots of shells...spent a good hour shell hunting... We saw lots of crab holes in the ground...apparently they are called "ghost crabs" and they only come out at night and they are almost transparent.. I was so excited when I spotted this shell.....but somebody was inside... and this baby crab on the outside!!! They have these really cute "tiny narrow rental homes".... these are the first skinny homes we have seen!! Saw dolphins in the distance for the first time today....super excited....George has to "make me move one" ....because I could stay all day and watch them... Biked out on the fishing bridge....this one goes out qui...

Today is the day....we must leave New York....it`s been great... it`s been expensive....and it`s time to go... Gracie may have wanted to visit this place...but no Dog Spa for her... Today is also the day we will part paths with Brother Joe...we will head West....because we must....he will have another direction...we will miss him....has been a great time travelling with him. It took us almost an hour to wind our way out of Jersey City...it was raining...and I swear Roxanne had us going in circles....there was detour after detour...and some ridiculously narrow streets.....but we made it......we had no idea where we were...the skies were grey and dismal and we just seemed to be going around and around..... And then this crazy horrible sign appeared...WTF....WEST!!! What is that!!!! It wasn`t long before we left the busy streets for rolling hill of trees...it is just so green and so hilly.... I love this one...it`s the first we have ever seen...... ...

It's a pretty fitting day to leave the beach...it's raining....it's still warm...but it's still raining.... Taking a ferry today instead of dealing with the traffic...won't take any time off our trip...but will take the miles off our trip...cost wise...not too sure...but if it can eliminate a few hours on the road in the city...it's worth it. This bird decided to build a nest in the busiest place ever!!! Right at the Ferry Terminal... And all along the way....Dophins.....Yay!! I will never tire of seeing them playing in the water! So before long we are on the New Jersey Turnpike.... which just means .....toll....after toll.....after toll.... and you have no idea which lane you are supposed to be in... Nightmare! Marty!!!.... You will love this....... You know all those American dimes and nickels I was saving.... Finally had a chance to use them.... Oh the look on his face when I gave him $6.00 in dimes and nickels!!! W...
