Most of the photos in this post were taken by Jeff White and Wes Eubank. "Thanks, guys!"
The forecast was for Florida cold, lots of wind, and zero percent chance of rain. Fat chance! 2 out of 3 isn't bad. It was colder than we weather wimps are happy with, and quite windy. But, we had plenty of extra fleece, some extra paddling jackets, and were protected from the wind by all the trees. Now about that rain we were not going to get. At the very outset we got just enough to dampen our spirits. Yet, with concern in our expressions we kept on going.
And, going.
And, going . . . and, there was no more rain.
We kept on going until we came across a pair of manatees. Some suspect they were mother and child. But, I thought that was too easy, and they must be one regular and one midget manatee. Check out the photos. Can you tell who has it right?
I'm sticking with the midget idea.
The manatees seemed to take offense at the midget crack and the big one appeared to want to get even. But, they ducked under and all was well.
So, we followed them for a bit, before stopping for lunch.
Doesn't it look like Rosemary is saying, "Come on Bruno, one more bite?"
And, then who crashed our luncheon?
It's the midget and the monster.
And, shortly thereafter, Rosemary must still be trying to get one more bite. But, Bruno is happily keeping her away.
And, finally breaks free.
Here are some more of our cruise mates.
And, Jeff at the take-out, taking a rest after carrying all those kayaks up the hill.
He kind of looks like a fisherman with his catch, doesn't he?
