Daytona Week

Daytona Boardwalk

Last week at Daytona was fun!  We started out by taking a tour at the Daytona International Speedway, exploring the boardwalk at "The World's Most Famous Beach" and seeing Manatees in their natural habitat at Blue Spring State Park which is located in Orange City.  The weather was very windy some days on the beach but warm.  We did have a few chilly days that I had to break out a sweatshirt! Poor me!  Walks on the beach were always interesting, seeing trucks and cars actually driving on the beach and lots of seagulls and sandpipers!!  Check out my pictures from Daytona Week with the Petersens!

Huge place!

Manatee Mama and baby!

Blue Spring State Park was great seeing a part of Florida that isn't commercial.  Florida has so much to offer and seeing Manatees in their habitat and learning about how they migrate to warmer waters in the winter was very interesting.  Lucky to see this baby with it's mother was too cute.  We met our friends who live in St Cloud, Florida in the winter at the Park and they showed us this park as they have been here many times.  The count for Manatees the day before we came was 275.  They count them every day. So cool!

More Manatees

Rockers!
