Leaving St George Island, Florida

March 11, 2015     I did not want to leave St George Island.  The past couple of days were beautiful.   We did not get to do everything we wanted to do.   This is an awesome place for biking and we didn’t get to do much at all.   This morning David and I opted for a stroll on the beach before packing up.  Today is another travel day.  We are off to St Joseph Peninsula State Park  in Port St Joe,  Florida.

Of course, my buddy The Great Blue Heron is on the beach bidding us a fond farewell, until next time.   He was actually watching some fisherman hoping for a handout, but he took time out to pose for me  🙂

This is such a peaceful place.  The sound of the waves is mesmerizing.   Suddenly, David says “Look! Out about 11:00!”  For the next 30 – 40 minutes we are entertained by a pod of dolphin.   I swear they were body surfing off the waves.  I tried to get a decent photo,  but I needed a much bigger lens.  My photos  make them  look more like shark fins sticking out of the water.  There must have been a dozen of them.  They were rolling and diving.  It seemed like they were staying in pairs.  It was just so delightful to watch.

It was hard to leave,  but over the bridge we go!   We have never been to St Joseph Peninsula before.  Another new adventure 🙂
