After leaving Atlanta, we got on the road and headed to sunny Florida! This was state #42 for Ellie and Adam, and #44 for Emma! Glen, Spence, and I had been there before, so it was not a new state for the three of us.
As much as we would have loved to have driven into the heart of Florida and explored it more, we didn't have enough time on this trip. Pensacola was where we stayed the night and Perdido Key State Park was the beach we decided to visit!
It was a tad too chilly to swim for most of us, but Ellie and Emma stayed in the water for quite a while...
and it was absolutely beautiful weather for walking along the beach.
The sand there was so soft that it squeaked underneath our feet.
After the beach, we ate dinner at the seaside Harbour Grill.
The food was delicious and even matched up to Emma's standards, which these days is saying something significant.
We went to church there in Pensacola the next morning and afterward tried to go on a hike...
However, the trails were poorly marked and all seemed to dead-end quickly, so we ended up unsuccessful in that quest.

It was lovely anyway though and before long we were off on the next part of our adventures!
Thank you for sharing your blog. I love reading it, even though I don't comment very often. Enjoy reading about your well planned out trips. They must be way more fun than the way we used to travel. Haha! But at least we traveled
