Manatees, sunshine, and dolphins oh my! Now not sure what you are thinking as you frozen this morning to get out of bed. Ponding where god has gone as of late. Why can’t he make up his mind in January. If you should have snow or rain or maybe just for the fun of it both at the same time? Is there not a better place to be? I’ve no had to shovel snow or deal with black ice in my morning commute for quite some time.
Have you ever seen a giant sea cow?!?! Manatees are very amazing and peaceful creates just eating away on grass as they move up and down our river ways, bays, and canals. During our mild winter times down here they tend to mirage towards our warmer waters. Where you can see hundreds of them!
While certain types of their species are moving off the endangered list and onto the threated list you still have been mindful when out boating and enjoying other water actives. You never know when one of these gentle giants will come by and want to give you some affection!
When I think of state nicknames I draw blank even in places I’ve lived in or vacation in. With one exception – Florida. Do you even know your own state nickname? Most people seem to know ours “the sunshine state.” Things get better once you learn our state motto as well. I won’t spoil that one for you.
That sums us up very nicely. Some of our beaches you can even drive on. Whenever the weather is bad you just have to wait five minutes or so and the rain tends to pass on by. From our world famous Daytona Beach to some of them off the beaten path you won’t run into another person for hours. We have lots of sunshine to go around!
While you are out enjoying all the water around us and all the adventures to be had with friends. You might also spot some dolphins. Now I know what you’re thinking football fans right? Well, kind of we do have a football team named after them and maybe you run into some pirate fans as well!
I’m talking about the beautiful creates called dolphins. You know the ones that enjoy feeding on fish along shorelines and are so lovable you just want hug one! Naturally, we do have one the larger area to interact with them in person in a theme park if you are more into guided tours.
Here you thought all Florida had to offer you was a glass of fresh orange juice and some overpriced theme parks!
