Our next drive was 120 miles. We crossed the Suwanee (Swanee) River, like in the song, which is the Florida state song,
and arrived in Crystal River, FL. We are going to spend the next 9 days at Crystal Isles RV Resort. Here are some pictures of the park.
There are travelling RVers mixed in with the annual leased sites.
Many annual leased sites with big car & RV covers.
Haven't seen any gators yet...
They have a nice pool.
This area had canals and waterways everywhere. They call Crystal River the Manatee capital of the world. There are lots of warm water springs and the manatees just love it here. We went and visited Three Sisters Springs where they have a refuge for the Sea Cows (Manatees). We walked the trails and waterways and took lots of pictures.
Walking trails around the springs.
A really beautiful area.
Spanish moss is everywhere.
They love it here.
Outside the 'protective area' you can kayak or swim with the manatees.
Trees are loaded with Spanish moss.
Then we headed over to the Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center.
Very informative.
Heading to another Escapees park next Wednesday.
The Fergs out .......
