On Monday we ran a few errands in town before heading down to Disney World with our friends, Rodd & Kristie and Co. – and we had a blast riding the boats and the monorail. On Tuesday we went to Blue Springs and watched the manatees (see the pictures below). Yesterday, we dilly dallied around the house and then went to the mall for a few hours. It was a relaxed, family-oriented three days, and we have the pictures to prove it.
Oh, I love Blue Springs!
Okay, how is it that you always get to see manatees!? I’ve been to Blue Springs a number of times and always seem to miss them.
Manatees really only show up in blue springs during the winter months. The water is a constant 72 degrees, which is cooler than the St. Johns in the Summer, but warmer in the Winter. If you go anytime this month or next you will see tons of them.
