This portion of the trip was by no means record breaking travel speed, but for the most part we had a lot of fun. This is the longest car trip little C has ever taken and she did very well - although by the end she wanted nothing more to do with the car.Following waffles (made with pecans, the first time I've had them that way, YUM!) and some last minute visiting, we got off to a great start with some wonderful driving by Joe and Big C. Joe led us through the construction going on and onto the correct highway.
We leisurely made our way up through the state, stopped for lunch at a great seafood market/ restaurant, Charlie's in Crystal River- It was great. The food was wonderful, we had really good food and We finished up our meal with some fried ice cream. Little C REALLY enjoyed herself too and the ice cream.We had a activity tote that little C's Grammy made her for Christmas that kept her well occupied in the car and in every restaurant we visited, a priceless gift.
A Little further up the road we turned off the main road and detoured to Manatee Springs State park where we checked out the spring, walked the board walk and played in the play ground. It was a good chance to get out and stretch our legs.
The rest of the trip was just driving, driving and more driving. A quick stop for dinner in Perry and then we continued on to Port St. Joe - Arriving at 10 PM. Quite the long day but fun too.
