Saturday the 12th – DAY 11 – Trip to Zephyrhills, FL. 2013


Slept in a little later today, tired from all the previous goin’s on I guess.  Anyhow, we left th’ RV at 10:00am to head to St George Island.  There’s a 9 mile long bridge between th’ mainland and th’ island, there’s no turnin’ around, stoppin’ or fishin’, ya gotta keep goin’, so we did!

Once on th’ Island, we did th’ typical tourist thing, drove around slow lookin’ stuff over.  At first glance, not very many eatin’ places.  Th’ first thing we noticed was th’ St George Lighthouse.

then, some really skinny houses that looked like they were at least two rooms wide.  Later, we saw some that were only one room wide but failed to get a picture.

We journeyed on down th’ Island and there were homes after homes, even some new ones bein’ built.  Pretty soon we came to th’ entrance of the St. George State Park.
This kinda reminds us of th’ National Seashore on Padre Island a coupla years ago.

Th’ Malibu finally got to get off th' car dolly and stretch its legs.


We put our Footprints in th’ sand !

Now, since we had not had breakfast yet, (it’s around 2:00pm) we decided to find a place to eat.  Now, remember, there were no signs of anyplace to eat when we arrived on th’ Island.  When we got back to th’ main part of th’ Island, and took a side street, all kinds of places to eat.  We chose one that looked pretty good, th’ “Blue Parrot” Seafood Restaurant.


  

Atmosphere was great, Food was expensive and not that good.  Wanda had a “Crabcake” Sandwich (two thumbs down she says) and JW had a $10 “Blue Parrot Famous Cheeseburger”, th’ cheeseburger was good but Jw thinks he likes Sonic’s cheeseburgers best.  Anyhow, we got filled up and ready to leave th’ Island, get back to th’ RV and take a nap.  See ya later . .
