Made it to Florida (Florida Boating, Post 6)

Thursday, February 4

Here is Mobile, Alabama, as seen from the freeway Thursday morning.

Here’s the tunnel under Mobile Bay or river. Or something. I don’t know how to tell the difference out here. It’s just all water everywhere.

John says the battleship is the USS Alabama, which is part of the largest battleship class ever made in the US.

I guess this is technically yet another bridge, but these long flat stretches seem more like freeways through water than what I’d typically think of when I picture a bridge.

Around the time we crossed into Florida it seemed much greener. The trees were no longer bare for winter.

More bridges. I believe this to be just past Pensacola, Florida.

The lighting is all wrong for the picture, but it was pretty on the shore.

Next stop – our first night in Florida we’re going to spend at Lake Griffin State Park.
