The Trip that Never Was :)

Originally, Kelsey and I were going to do a trip to Florida to swim with the manatees. Now we knew that, for the time of year we were going, this was going to be a sparse swim, but we were up for it. Anyway, tropical storm someone had his way and we canceled that trip and went on a different one. I wanted to record my plans for this one so that we can take it later (but know that it's not a tested plan).

Day 1- drive to Homosassa, Florida, where we were staying in the cutest Airbnb. We planned to rest and enjoy the pool for day 1.

Depending on the weather, the following could have been switched around, but here were our plans:

Snorkle with the manatees with River Ventures. They were the best reviewed company I found. We were going to do a 6:15 AM swim.

Go down to Weeki Wachi and enjoy the water park, the show, and then kayak the river in a tandem kayak.

Possibly go up to the Rainbow River and kayak and snorkel.

Spend a day on a beach, probably Sunset Beach in Tarpon Springs and also take a boat tour to see the sponge docks and islands.

I had also booked a stay at the King's Bay Lodge, a place that apparently looks iffy from the outside and is super nice inside. They also have kayaks for use by people staying there, which was cool.

I did look into the bioluminescence kayak tours at the Cocoa Beach area, but we decided not to drive so far.
