The USA is a big place and there are days where we just drive across it. This can be very interesting days as we watch the scenery change, towns come and go, and enjoy the beauty you only get by driving. The land, the roads, the plants, even the cloud formations change drastically throughout the US and we love pointing them out and learning about them. It does get monotonous at times and we try to break up long drives. When making our way from Louisiana to Florida we choose to take a lunch break in Gulf Port, Mississippi.
We found a beautiful park with a large parking lot and access to a sparkling white clean sandy beach. The water was shallow and warm although not clear. The kids splashed and swam trying to catch the little fish and pulling up hermit crabs. C is currently going through a scared of sharks in the ocean thing. It took a lot of convincing to get him off the shore but when he did he had a great time. Our hour on the beach went fast and soon we were rinsing off in the splash pad and having lunch.
After lunch we were back on the road, but it was a great mid day stop and well worth it to get in some sand and sea time. By evening we were out in the country in Florida listening to the crickets sing us to sleep.
