Eileen's Random Travels


A Photoblog post of my random travels.


"Adventure is worthwhile." unknown

Hubby and I managed to visit a lot of Florida's state parks, on this day we went to Blue Spring State Park. This park is  known for manatee sightings from November to March. We saw a few manatees, enjoyed the clear water and some cormorants and turtles sunning themselves with a few turtles. 
The water is so clear you can see the fishing swimming around.

The trail



Not sure what this fish is but it was big. Edit: per Dee these fish are called Gar, or Alligator Gar.









I am sharing some of my random travel photos, this is not only for my followers but more of a reminder for me and my hubby of where we have been and what we have seen over the years. All good memories for us, I hope you enjoy too.

I hope you enjoyed! Thanks for stopping by, enjoy your day!
