after several hours touring across the rainy sunshine state, we decided to prolong our roadtrip and escape the bad weather by going further south along the mexican gulf. we firstly stopped in homosassa springs, the home of the manatees [also known as see cows].
we rent a boat and discovered the wildlife. besides watching to manatees we came across several fish and birds while diving and snorkelling in the cristall clear water. an unforgettable experience!
the next day we continued our coastal tour to go back north, along the beautiful coast to visit a whole lot of stunning beaches.our first stop was at the alligator point, where we found a great collection of big sea shells.
with a truckload of 'sea jewelry' we drove on to st. george island's state park, which not only impressed us with its dunes and 'mountains',..
..but also with its waves in the green water.
mexico beach was our next stop.
the pictures speak for themselves..
well, we enjoyed the kitschy beach before we entered panama city, one of the most popular places for students to party during spring break.
the sea was ruff and that's why jumped into the water. was great fun and very exciting, until..
..my significant other lost our keys [both for the truck and the apartment] in the waves.well, it costs over a hundred bucks to let jeff break into your car and install a new starter switch.
the sun had already set,
..when we continued our trip to find a room. as we were quite exhausted and we wanted to celebrate our six months anniversary, we got us a room at the four points [sheraton] in okaloosa island; with sea view, certainly.
we slept so well, having the sea and its sounds in the background the whole night.
