Woke up to the sound of rain yet again. This is not one of the trends I was hoping to endure. Anyway, lots of weather channel watching led us to postponing departure for a while. A bunch of Sara's friends came by to see us off and take pictures. The rain finally passed and we got on the road. It even cleared up and became a beautiful day.
We left Pensacola, getting back on the ACA route. A lot of today was spent riding with views of the water, which I love. We stopped by Sara's work so all her colleague's could see her off as well, then it was back on the road. We came across a bamboo garden, so Ryan, Mike, and I stopped in. The owner was real cool guy, and rode bikes as well. He showed us all these different bamboo plants he had, I think he said there are 306 varieties. Interesting.
Then we pushed on to Perdido Key, and rode along beaches for the rest of the day. We stopped and walked around by the ocean for a bit. Then we rode by Flor-Abama, where the owner gave us a bunch of Bama Bucks, and we got like half price sandwichs. Got a fried shrimp sandwich, very tasty.
So now we're all camped out at Gulf State Park. This place was sold out, we got the "emergency site." 28 bucks, and they let us set up 6 tents. Sweet deal.
