What a great day today we drove to Jacksonville Beach and took the old A1A road along the shore and in Mayport you take the ferry over to St George Island on the way to Fernandina Beach. Bought back a lot of happy memories of our taking the ferry from Campbellton to Cross Point during the summer...We would take the ferry at 7:30am and spend the day in Carleton or St Omer and came back at 7pm. Can you imagine 11 people in a station wagon(hahaha, that was before seat belts). We had great times. Great reminiscing..Today is was a balmy 84F or 27C. Awesome!!!
Pic 1 is an Albatross sitting on the pier beside the ferry. I saw at least a dozen. Beautiful!! Pic 2 is the shrimp boats in front of the Singleton Seafood Shack. Pic 3 is the lunch we had....Fresh Flounder cooked just before serving . Freshly caught this morning. Can't get any fresher than that!!! Pic 4 is of the Atlantis 2 which help locate the Titantic and helped take the images that we see today. Pic 5 is the Kingsley Plantation on Fort George Island built in 1765!!! Well built to be still standing...Pic 6 is the beach along A1A...All in all a great day
