Oct 31 - Nov 2 PanHandle of Florida, Navarre, Florida

Weather  Sunny  + 70F/22C Breezy
Monday we drove from Nashville, TN through Alabama and into the top of Florida - called The Panhandle Area.  We arrived at Emerald Beach RV Park after hours, about 6 pm.

When you RV they leave a package expecting your arrival in an outside box, it gives you a map to your site and your welcome package.  I looked in the box and nothing was there, being a Newbie I figured well they were busy and didn't leave it so we went to our site.  Guess what??? There was another camper setup in our site, all hooked up and moved right in.  Hmmm, now what.  I got out and the fellow came over and said "Oh are we in your site?"   "Ah yes!" I said.  "No problem we will move", he says.  Me being the naive one says "Do you know what site you should have?"   Apparently they did and pulled out, so we settled in.   Next morning we check in and the ladies had a good laugh telling us that they were 'squatters' ....   Of course this happens to the Rookies!  This a pretty park right on the water, beautiful setting.
Wednesday  Today we rode through miles of snow white beaches in the state park called  Gulf Shores National Seashore .   Serene, no wonder it was a disaster when the oil spill happened.

Stopped for a little lunch at a cool seafood restaurant called Flounders; I hope your hungry when you order the Key Lime Pie.  We couldn't resist.










We spotted their t-shirts when we were leaving and found the perfect one for our fishing enthusiast Jason - this ones for you buddy!
It seems there is always that low bridge, this one is only 10' 4" we never noticed them before we had the motorhome once again we were glad to be on the motorcycle.  This one is on the Pensacola Scenic Bluffs Highway.
